Risk management and hedging

Risk management is an essential task for buyers and sellers of energy in futures markets, bilateral contracts or PPAs. The risk of the product portfolio must be kept under control and managed effectively.

Hedging is essential for reducing market price risk on the product portfolio. Through hedging, losses arising from adverse market price movements are reduced or eliminated.

It is very useful for agents to receive alerts to identify the best time to buy or sell an energy product in futures markets.

Mid-term and long-term forecasting services with associated probabilities are essential inputs for risk assessment.

At AleaSoft, we have price forecasting reports for Europe’s main electricity markets, which are essential inputs for assessing portfolio risk and for identifying hedging opportunities.

  • Mid-term forecasting reports with distributions of possible future prices and their associated probability, with a forecast horizon of one to three years.
  • Long-term forecasting reports with confidence bands at different percentiles, with a forecast horizon of five to thirty years.
These reports are essential for all agents who buy or sell energy, such as traders, utilities, energy retailers and large consumers.
