This transition to 15-minute settlement beginning 1 October has improved alignment with physical energy flows driven by renewable integration. 3) Renewables curtailment rises in Spain in the post-blackout period. Renewable curtailment driven by post-blackout voltage control protocols surged to 11% of day-ahead programmed generation in July, triggering 7 TWh of additional gas generation and widening price spreads.
