The comparison is against the same weeks a year earlier rather than the previous month, because electricity is seasonal: measuring September against August would measure the calendar rather than the market.
About this market
Austria and Germany shared a single bidding zone until October 2018, when congestion on the border forced a split. The two zones have diverged since.
