Energy Trading & Risk Management
Trading and risk management activities are key to navigating extreme market conditions, such as those seen in 2021/22, and the volatility the energy transition will bring. In addition to traditional energy traders, more market participants, such as renewable energy producers, are starting to engage with trading in wholesale markets and focus on portfolio optimisation to stabilise revenues or increase profitability.
At the same time, there has been an increase in enforcement action across Europe for non-compliance with REMIT (the Regulation on Energy Market Integrity and Transparency) in recent years. As European energy markets continue to evolve and expand, it is critical that market participants fully understand their obligations and have the required systems and controls.
