About Western Norway
Western Norway (NO5) is the Bergen electricity price area, one of five into which Norway divides its hydropower system. Its reservoirs hold about 17.4 TWh of usable energy capacity. Filling degree is drawn down through winter and refills with snowmelt from late spring; comparing the current curve against earlier years (above) shows whether the area is running wetter or drier than normal.
