Concurrent unavailable capacity across Europe peaked at 72,853 MW on 29 June, with France and Germany combining for nearly 66% of the shortfall. French nuclear constraints dominated the generation mix, led by major reductions at Golfech 2 and Paluel 3.
European concurrent unavailable capacity reached a peak snapshot of 72,853 MW on 29 June at 07:00. France drove this high-water mark, recording 24,632 MW offline to capture a 33.8% share of the continental total. Germany benchmarked closely behind at 23,349 MW (32.0%), while third-placed Spain dropped steeply to 6,395 MW (8.8%). Across 21 countries, the aggregate weekly event volume—a sum of all overlapping outage records rather than a simultaneous system shortfall—totalled 203,415 MW.
The French shortfall was heavily concentrated in its nuclear fleet, generating 40,119 MW of the country's event volume across 80 outage signals. Fossil gas and hydro pumped storage registered minor volumes of 3,999 MW and 2,526 MW. The deepest supply reductions came from major nuclear assets, led by maximum affected capacities of 1,273 MW at GOLFECH 2 and 1,220 MW at PALUEL 3. CATTENOM 2, FLAMANVILLE 2, and ST-ALBAN-ST-MAURICE 2 added further pressure to the generation mix.

The table separates two questions. The country ranking identifies where the simultaneous outage peak sat during the week. The driver table shows whether that signal came from one or two large units, a broader fuel cluster, or a diffuse set of smaller records. That is the level at which the weekly dispatch becomes analytically useful: a peak can be large because one asset is unavailable, because many medium-sized units overlap, or because a technology segment is moving together.
