Key achievements in March 

Power

• March 2021 marked a record month for the European power spot markets with a trading volume of 55.9 TWh (previous record: 55.8 TWh in December 2020). This new high was mostly driven by the increase in the Intraday Market (+14% to 10.4 TWh).
• The total trading volume on the European power derivatives market amounted to 380 TWh which is a decline of 29%. The y-o-y decline is mainly due to the strong volumes seen in March 2020 resulting from high levels of volatility as a result of the first Corona lockdown.
• The Nordic Power Futures continued its strong development. The volume increased by more than 6 times to 1.4 TWh (March 2020: 229.3 GWh).
• EEX Group’s global power offering also showed strong increases with 810 GWh traded on the Japanese derivatives market, which is the second highest volume since launch (record: 1,160 GWh in January 2021). Trading in US power derivatives, operated by Nodal Exchange, increased by 41% to a volume of 200.3 TWh (March 2020: 141.9 TWh).
