20 EPEX Spot Power Intraday Markets Trends and Initiatives Growing intraday markets The Volumes on the Intraday markets of EPEX SPOT, covering Germany/Austria, France and Switzerland, have surged in 2014, up by 33% year-on-year, underlining the relevance of intraday trading. Intraday auction EPEX Spot successfully launched a 15min auction on 9 December 2014 to concentrate liquidity and improve the price reference for quarter-hourly trading. More than 70 active members already. Lead time trading closer to delivery EPEX SPOT and ECC are currently working on reducing the lead time for continuous Intraday trading from 45min to 30min. Page 20

21 EEX Cap Future Hedging against Intraday Price Risks The problem 1. In case of deviations between forecasted generation and actual generation, RES suppliers have to act as price takers in the power intraday market 2. Providers of flexible generation capacities can sell their electricity at peak prices to meet shortterm demand. The solution 1. By mid 2015, EEX will launch a standardized financial future that allows to hedge against peak prices on EPEX SPOT s intraday power market in Germany. 2. RES suppliers insure against peak prices 3. Flexible generators secure peak prices Page 21

22 EEX Cap Future Product Design #1 Intraday Index Typically, price spikes in the intraday market occur shortly before delivery (less than 3h) This pattern is caused by generation scarcity and necessary purchases, which are related to compensate deviations between actual generation and forecast generation The new intraday index will be based on all trades within 3h before the delivery hour in order to capture the scarcity signal. At the same time, the 3h window allows to capture enough volume to ensure robustness of the index. Page 22

23 EEX Cap Future Product Design #2 General idea In contrast to the Day-Ahead market (auction-based), the EPEX SPOT intraday market is a continuous market with different trading products opening call-auction on d-1 continously traded 1h contracts continously traded 1/4h contracts In order to ensure robustness of the Cap Futures underlying, EPEX SPOT will build the new intraday index only on 1h contracts Page 23

24 EEX Cap Future Product Design #3 Payout For each hour in the delivery period, the underlying Index is calculated as volume-weighted average of all EPEX SPOT intraday market trades within 3 hours before delivery. If the index is above the Cap, the pay-out for the specific hour will be the difference between the index and the cap. If the index is below the cap, the payout is zero. Contract details Type Market Area Underlying Maturities Cap Contract Size Expiry Financial future with daily mark-to-market Germany New EPEX SPOT Intraday index Week contracts (current week + 4 weeks ahead tradable) Proposal: 65 /MWh, to be confirmed with market participants 168 MWh, similar to Phelix Base Week Futures Monday after delivery week, similar to Phelix Week Future Page 24

25 EEX Cap Future Example Example The new EEX Cap Futures are set up as futures (daily mark-to-market) but have a payout-profile similar to an option Only hours where the intraday index is above the Cap (e.g 65 /MWh), will generate a payout Hour Intraday price index Payout : /MWh /MWh : /MWh /MWh : /MWh 8.63 /MWh : /MWh /MWh : /MWh 6.32 /MWh Sum /MWh Final Settlement The final settlement price is the average pay-out over the delivery period; hours with prices below the cap are counted with zero. (This is equivalent of taking the total payout and dividing it by 168) In the example above (week 9/2014), the final settlement price of the Intraday Week Cap Future will be /MWh Page 25

26 EEX Cap Future Buy and Sell Side Who is interested? RES suppliers Conventional power suppliers Financial players Trading scenarios Industry group RES suppliers RES suppliers Conventional power suppliers Conventional power suppliers Financial players Trading strategy Hedge against scarcity prices in case of necessary replacement purchases Limit the downside of the spread between dayahead and peak intraday prices Cap futures can serve as capacity premium for peak price periods. Sell part of monthly production via cap-future and hedge via the physical asset. Sell monthly production via standard products (base or peak profile) and buy cap-future: additional revenue in case of scarcity. High volatility in intraday market brings new trading opportunities Page 26

27 EEX Cap Future Outlook Timeline EEX will introduce the new Intraday Cap Futures by mid The exact launch date and technical setup parameters will be communicated to the trading and clearing community via Customer Information and Circulars. Next steps Once sufficient liquidity in the Cap Future is achieved, the product idea will be extended. EEX s next step will be a Cap Future to hedge against negative prices on the intraday market. In combination, both products allow efficient hedging of storages on the intraday market. With the introduction of new and innovative products, EEX is strengthening the energy-only-market. Page 27
