The current context is also characterized by the increasing attention paid to energy security, conditioned by the volatility of the prices for energy raw materials, among other factors. This work analyzes the raw material price exposure of electricity producers in the Eurozone. The results indicate that the listing of raw materials in U.S. dollars is the primary cause of business exposure, with an impact greater than the price of the raw material itself. A geographic analysis also indicates that there are important differences in the level of exposure among companies in different countries, which can make it difficult to reach a consensus in the European Unioneng© 2023 The Authors.
