The intraday market is a crucial component of the energy industry. It enables participants to trade electricity in nearly real-time, allowing them to balance supply and demand and respond quickly to fluctuations in renewable energy generation.
This flexibility is increasingly important in the transition towards a cleaner energy system, where renewable energy sources can be intermittent and hard to predict.
Etpa's intraday platform is designed to provide fast, affordable and reliable access to this market for companies of all sizes, further incentivizing the transition towards clean energy.
Etpa's platform is based on the European Cross-Border Intraday (XBID) solution, which enables the continuous trading of electricity across several countries in Europe.
This means that market participants have access to a larger pool of energy supply and demand, reducing the need for balancing energy and improving the integration of renewable energy sources.
The benefits of XBID include increased liquidity, price convergence, and market efficiency, providing an overall more robust and secure energy market.
