Hotter weather in Europe this summer risks driving up demand while causing output from hydropower and nuclear plants to fall, according to research firm Energy Aspects.
Higher-than-usual temperatures across western Europe next month could add about 3 gigawatts of extra demand, it said, while generation from hydro and nuclear power is expected to take a hit of a similar dimension.
