The new functionality will complement the Trade Registration service for Japan Power Futures, which EEX launched 5 years ago. With the introduction of the order book, market participants will have electronic access to real-time market prices and liquidity, thus allowing for more informed decisions and more efficient trading strategy execution.

    There will be no changes to the existing Trade Registration service for Japan Power Futures.
