Dear Customers, Partners and Friends,
Welcome to our latest Global Power Derivatives newsletter.
Autumn is always busy here at EEX as we reconnect with our local communities in our key markets after the summer break. I was delighted that we met many of you across Europe and Japan over the last months – London, Copenhagen, Milan, Paris, Athens or Tokyo - and we are already looking forward to more opportunities for in-person chats and discussions.
On our power derivatives markets - it’s good news all around. After last year’s sluggish trading mood, we now register volume levels similar to those before the energy crisis and no signs of slowing down. By end of October, trading volumes in EEX’s European Power markets are up +42% on a year-on-year basis.
We are also delighted to see the continued development in Japan, where we just co-hosted the very first Japan Power Summit. Here we engaged with international and domestic experts to discuss the most important developments affecting this market.
In addition, we’ve also just announced the launch of a new energy exchange for the Brazilian market. We believe that markets across the globe can benefit from our decades-long expertise in building up markets from early stages. Energy exchanges play a vital role in ensuring transparent market pricing, and derivatives trading can be an essential tool for long-term risk management – all important aspects for our new markets.
In this Power Derivatives Market update, you can not only learn about how our global markets developed in recent months, but we’ll also report on the developments in our wider ecosystem and other asset classes.
Until next time,
Steffen Köhler

EEX Group comes to Brazil - we teamed up with investment fund L4 VB, a company backed with funds of South America’s largest stock exchange B3, to launch N5X, a new energy exchange for the Brazilian market. Brazil is the sixth-largest consumer and the seventh largest producer of electricity in the world and in the process of electricity market liberalization. N5X will begin full operations in 2024 with the aim to improve liquidity, price transparency and risk management practices, in collaboration with the local trading community. To learn more, contact Dri Barbosa.

Last week, we co-hosted the Japan Power Summit in Tokyo with over 300 attendees and insightful panel discussions on the state and future of the Japanese power market. EEX has seen continued growth at trading levels in the first three years of operation and we are delighted to welcome both domestic and international participants to this market. In addition, Lacima ran an Energy Risk Management Workshop for 50+ members of the local trading and risk community. Visit our Japan Power site to learn more about this market.

In October, we celebrate the 10th anniversary of the first EEX trades on the Italian power market. We marked this at our recent traders' event in Milan, where we debated the current state of energy markets with the local community, over a glass or two of wine.

| | EU Energy Council reaches agreement | |
|
|
October marks an agreement between EU energy ministers on the European electricity market design. This means that the trialogue negotiations with the European Commission and the European Parliament can finally take off and closure of the file is still possible before the end of the year.
Although EEX is acknowledging that according to the Council, state backed, two-sided CfDs should not create undue distortions to competition and trade in the internal market, we remain very concerned about the risk they crowd out futures markets liquidity if Member States make extensive use of them.
We also reiterate the need to do a proper impact assessment before any decision is taken on the creation of regional virtual trading hubs.
