Published: Feb 28, 2026 09:09
The CEO of the European Energy Exchange (EEX), Peter Reitz, revealed to the professional media Montel that EEX may launch a standardized trading product this year to hedge the risk exposure of battery energy storage.

In an interview, Reitz stated that the market is reacting to the current situation, with the gap between the highest and lowest intraday prices continuously widening. As an exchange, EEX finds it necessary to ensure the development of hedging tools that align with such risk characteristics.
