EU countries: a combined snapshot of the member states this site tracks
The EU's 27 member states run separate national grids, tightly interconnected and increasingly traded as one synchronous market. This page is not a full EU-27 total - it sums live figures across the member states this site tracks via the ENTSO-E Transparency Platform (Ireland, France, the Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark, Germany, Spain, Italy, Sweden, Portugal and Poland), which still leaves out other EU grids including Austria and the Baltic and Balkan states. Treat it as a live snapshot of eleven EU grids, not a bloc-wide figure.

History
Choose a time range to see real recorded demand, generation and day-ahead price summed across the tracked countries, over time. Demand excludes Ireland (its demand comes from EirGrid, not ENTSO-E - see Ireland's own page for that figure); price is a simple average across countries reporting a value, not weighted by demand.

About the EU-27 aggregate
Continental Europe's grid - from Portugal to Poland, and as far as the Balkans - runs as one large synchronous area coordinated by ENTSO-E, the European Network of Transmission System Operators for Electricity. Within it, national mixes differ hugely: France generates roughly two-thirds of its power from nuclear, Poland still leans heavily on coal, Norway and Austria are dominated by hydro, and Denmark regularly covers all of its demand with wind alone on windy days.
Cross-border interconnection lets surplus power flow to where it is needed: German wind exported south on a windy afternoon, French nuclear exported north on a still winter evening. The EU's target of a fully integrated internal electricity market - and its REPowerEU and Fit for 55 programmes - are steadily pushing member states toward more shared infrastructure and faster renewable buildout.
Great Britain, having left the EU's internal energy market after Brexit, now trades with the bloc only through bilateral interconnectors (to France, Belgium and the Netherlands) rather than as part of the coupled EU market - which is why GB's flows appear here as "net non-EU trade".
About the wider EU-27
The eleven grids tracked above cover a good share of the EU-27's population and generation capacity, including its two largest economies (Germany and France), its most coal-dependent large grid (Poland), and several of its most renewable-heavy grids (Sweden, Portugal, Denmark), but still leave out Austria, the Baltic states, the Balkans and others, so nothing on this page should be read as a genuine EU-wide total or record. For actual EU-27-wide figures and records, the Eurostat energy statistics and the ENTSO-E Transparency Platform (covering all connected TSOs, not just the eleven this site tracks) are the standard references.
Data sources for this page
The Elexon Insights Solution, NESO Data Portal and Carbon Intensity API that power the Great Britain pages are GB-specific and do not cover the EU. This page instead sums the same live per-country ENTSO-E Transparency Platform feed that powers Ireland, France, Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark, Germany, Spain, Italy, Sweden, Portugal and Poland's own pages - see each of those pages, or the sitewide data sources page, for details on that feed and its limitations. Norway (NO2) is also tracked via the same feed but excluded from this page's totals, since Norway is not an EU member state.
A genuine EU-27 aggregate would need every connected TSO's data, not just these eleven - via the full ENTSO-E Transparency Platform and Eurostat's energy statistics. That is a substantially larger integration than this site currently does, so it is not attempted here.
