Energy Trading
Our energy trading department ensures central access to the wholesale markets for power, gas and fuels.
- We market the electricity from renewable and conventional sources that is generated in our own power stations as well as in those of our customers and partners. This includes fuel procurement and logistics, CO₂ management as well as dispatching and control of the power stations.
- We support the market integration of renewable energies, for example within the context of direct marketing according to the Renewable Energy Law.
- We are competent partners to our customers in terms of optimising and marketing power stations and contracts on the electricity and gas markets. We offer the flexibility of our power stations and those of our customers on the relevant markets by providing a 24/7 service (futures markets, spot and intraday markets and balancing markets).
- We are responsible for the procurement, portfolio and risk management of the EnBW sales companies and support their electricity and gas customers in this respect.
- For this purpose, we are active on all the important energy exchanges in Europe e.g. European Energy Exchange (EEX), EPEX Spot and Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) and also do over-the-counter (OTC) business with more than 200 national and international counterparties. Our product portfolio comprises physical and financial products for power, gas, coal, oil and CO₂ certificates as well as structured contracts.
Our international team of employees keeps a close eye on the markets and guarantees our presence on the relevant wholesale markets in order to minimise market risks and increase the value of the investment portfolio. We are developing new products and strategies on the basis of our expertise and market know-how and continuing to establish position as an important player in European energy trading.
