In the framework of the continued expansion of its trans-parency, European Energy Exchange AG (EEX) will expand the range of information regarding the own data of the exchange on trading in power considerably as of today. Prior to its introduction, the new publication practice, which is in line with the German stock exchange act, was discussed intensively on the exchange council of EEX. “With this step, we are moving far beyond what is required by law without breaking the stock exchange act which guarantees the anonymity of trading and equal treatment of the participants“, Oliver Maibaum, Managing Director Exchange, explains and further un-derlines: “By means of this publication, we want to win further important trust in ex-change trading in power”.
As of today, additional data regarding trading in power is provided under the menu item “Market information“in the category “Transparency information”
(http://www.eex.com/en/Market%20Information/Transparency%20Information).
On the Spot Market for power, the following data is published on a daily basis for the hourly auction:- Number of the active trading participants in total per delivery day across all TSO zones of EEX for the German/ Austrian market area,
