The price of exchange electricity in Finland is poised to rise significantly on Monday, reaching 30 cents per kilowatt-hour. Current reports indicate that the average price tomorrow will be about 20 cents per kilowatt-hour, as referenced by the Pörssisähkö.fi website. This follows a tumultuous pricing trend experienced earlier in the week when the highest price surged to over 82 cents per kilowatt-hour on Tuesday, highlighting the volatility in the market.
As the week progressed, there were fluctuations in the electricity market, and prices fell by the end of the week.

Understanding these price trends is essential for households and industries that rely heavily on electricity, especially during winter when demand typically peaks.
