Notes

Carbon intensity is estimated from each market’s generation by fuel. Forward hours follow the renewables forecast.
Prices are day-ahead wholesale, not what a site pays.
The Netherlands reads high around midday, as Dutch solar output is under-reported.
“Delayed” marks a series that missed its last refresh.
