Power producers

Expertise for power producers

The marketing of electricity production requires a comprehensive setup of contracts, settlement processes and management strategies. Furthermore, the best way of applying any production flexibility by means of mathematical modelling is anything but trivial. Producers of renewable energy in particular are entering uncharted territory in this regard, when fixed feed-in tariffs end and marketing on the free market instead enters the picture. PPAs, tranche contracts or the sale of standard products are often still unknown sentities. Since energy supply companies are showing increasingly less willingness to cover the range of risks involved (balancing energy, profile or volumes), their evaluation and reduction of these is particularly is essential for successful marketing.

Market commentary October 2023

Europe was lucky in the previous year when it came to energy prices. After a year of extreme gas and power prices on the spot market, the price explosion expected in the summer of 2022 did not occur in 2023. Since the beginning of the year, power and gas prices have fallen steadily and they are now at two to three times their pre-war levels.

The summer now coming to an end has not…
