Energy Market Review and Lookahead: What did our experts say about the first quarter of 2025?
Our Energy Market Review and Lookahead examines what has driven electricity and gas prices in Q1 2025.
Regardless of size and sector, all organisations rely on energy for their daily operations. Therefore, decisions around when and how you buy energy are at the core of organisational decision-making.
However, energy is one of the most volatile commodity markets in the world. Events on the other side of the world – such as the weather, geopolitical matters and supply chain issues – can have an instantaneous impact on electricity and gas prices here in the UK.
Therefore, the foundation of Inspired’s procurement offering is continuously monitoring and analysing global energy markets to form expert insights.
Our Energy Market Review and Lookahead Q1 2025 offers an extensive overview of what has recently driven electricity and gas prices, where we are now and what we could expect in the coming months.
During the first quarter of 2025, some of the factors impacting our energy prices have included tariffs announced by the Trump administration and the subsequent 90-day pause, discussions surrounding linkage between the UK and EU Emissions Trading Schemes (ETS) and transition out of the La Niña weather pattern.
