ENWEX U.K. ONSHORE WIND FUTURES NOW LIVE FOR TRADING ON ABAXX EXCHANGE
Trading has commenced in Enwex U.K. Onshore Wind (UWM) futures, the second contract in Abaxx Technologies Inc.'s Abaxx Exchange's growing suite of weather derivatives.
Following the launch of
Enwex German Onshore Wind Futures, the United Kingdom contract addresses the unique risk profile of one of Europe's most wind-dependent power markets, where Atlantic weather patterns and seasonal variability create substantial generation volatility. The launch creates the first exchange-listed benchmark for managing U.K. wind-generation variability through a financially settled futures contract indexed to the country's installed capacity.
The contract is a pound-sterling-denominated, financially settled product indexed to
Enwex Wind U.K., a forecast-based index that translates wind speed at 100 metres into standardized generation utilization rates, expressed in pounds sterling/megawatt-hour.
"As wind capacity grows globally, markets need regional benchmarks that reflect local weather patterns," said Nancy Seah, chief executive officer of Abaxx Exchange. "We're introducing smarter weather markets with exchange-traded instruments designed for the specific dynamics that drive generation risk in each region."
"The U.K. launch demonstrates how the Enwex methodology for standardizing weather is scalable across markets," said Robin Girmes, founder and CEO of Enwex. "It creates an opportunity to transfer volumetric risk from renewable generation into broadly accepted, exchange-traded products that the market can price and manage."
"It's encouraging to see Abaxx follow its recent German wind launch with a U.K. wind product," added Tim Boyce, head of weather derivatives, Europe, Middle East and Africa, at TP ICAP. "This move is another positive step toward increasing market accessibility across a multitude of industries and underpins Abaxx's long-term commitment to the further development of weather markets."
Abaxx's
Enwex U.K. Onshore Wind (UWM) futures
are available for trading from 1,000 to 2,400 SGT (14 hours), Monday to Friday, except for Singapore public holidays.
