How we build a daily electricity price report for the DE-LU bidding zone

Description and use

A daily report of wholesale electricity prices for the DE‑LU bidding zone gives users a clear, forecast‑free snapshot of energy prices, enabling load shifting decisions.

Problem

Consumers, prosumers and fleet operators need a daily reference of wholesale electricity prices to shift flexible loads into cheaper hours, but existing data is not presented in an actionable, daily summary format.

Outcome

The daily electricity price report provides a clear, actionable snapshot of wholesale energy prices for the DE‑LU zone, enabling users to plan load shifting without misleading savings claims.

Workflow

• 1. Scheduler triggers the pipeline once per day.
• 2. Fetcher pulls day‑ahead wholesale prices for the DE‑LU bidding zone from EPEX SPOT.
• 3. Chart is rendered and the report is published to the web and social channels.
• 4. Reference date updates daily.
