Trading Hub Europe is a new trading participant on the EEX Gas Futures market
In the past months, THE has procured and stored gas volumes market-based via the EEX Gas Spot Market on behalf of the German government. Now, this stored gas is to be made available again on a market basis via the EEX Derivatives Market. THE had applied for admission to the EEX Gas Derivatives Market to optimally govern the managed gas storage facilities on behalf of the Federal Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Action and the Bundesnetzagentur.
Peter Reitz, Chief Executive Officer of EEX, comments on this step: "We would like to thank THE and German politicians for their confidence in the EEX Gas Markets and are pleased that we are able to contribute to securing the gas supply. EEX will continue to develop and offer market-based and costefficient solutions for upcoming challenges in dialogue with trading companies, infrastructure operators and regulators."
