How Europe's grid compares and trends — cross-country rankings right now, and daily carbon, price, and renewable trends over the archive. Aggregates count only zones with live data; days with too little coverage are shown as gaps, never guessed.
Cleanest grid right now: Sweden – Central (SE3) at 15 g; most carbon-intense: Bosnia and Herzegovina at 847 g.
