Global Power Derivatives Newsletter | April 2025

Dear Customers, Partners and Friends,
 
2025 started with exceptional trading volumes on the EEX Global Power Markets, setting a new quarterly record. This included a significant growth across our power derivatives markets, including monthly volume records on our Japanese power market, which fills us with optimism for the future. 


Even with these great results, we don’t sit back and relax but continue providing you with the best products and services to meet your unique needs. This year, we’ve already launched several new contracts in support of the energy transition, have improved margin rates for our Options offering, whilst we continue to extend our presence and offering around the world, from Japan to Brazil - with more to come.  


We are looking forward to meeting you again at our upcoming events in Stockholm, Helsinki, Tokyo, Madrid, Leipzig, and beyond to explore the best ways to develop these markets together this year again. 

Enjoy our latest newsletter,
 
Steffen Köhler
