TREE NEWS reports: ICE UK natural gas futures closed down 0.72% in late European trading on Thursday, September 17, while the TTF benchmark Dutch natural gas contract fell 1.19%. ICE EU Emissions Trading System allowance futures rose 1.44% over the same session.
UK Gas Falls 0.72%, Dutch TTF Drops 1.19%; EU Carbon Permits Rise 1.44%
The divergent moves are the story: gas benchmarks eased while EU carbon allowances firmed, a combination that points to carbon costs doing more of the work in European power economics than fuel prices on the day. That matters most for utilities and industrials whose hedging and generation margins hinge on the spread between TTF and EUA pricing. Whether the carbon-gas decoupling persists across sessions is the open question.
