About the Work

The development in the energy and energy derivatives markets has progressed rapidly over the last ten years. The volumes at trading venues have increased enormously. Heightened competition and growing international demand have intensified the pressure for innovation. Despite this rapid development, one principle remains: the trade always acts as an intermediary between energy generation and consumption. It is only through trade that energy receives a market-based price. This work presents energy trading from various perspectives, explaining complex issues in a practical and illustrative manner.
