Overview
The European Energy Exchange AG (EEX) relies on an open business model which generates more flexibility, better market coverage and increased volume through targeted spin-offs and co-operations.
In 2006, the transfer of the clearing activities to the subsidiary European Commodity Clearing AG (ECC) constituted the first step in this direction. The spin-off of power spot and derivatives trading into separate companies took place in 2007 and 2008. These subsidiaries are open for co-operations, participations and partnerships of various designs.
EEX holds 50% of the shares in EPEX Spot SE based in Paris which operates short-term trading in power – the so-called Spot Market – for Germany, France, Austria and Switzerland. German and French power derivatives trading is concentrated within EEX Power Derivatives GmbH, a majority-owned EEX subsidiary with registered offices in Leipzig. Furthermore, EEX offers spot and derivatives trading in natural gas and CO2 emission rights as well as trading in financial coal futures.
