Nodal Exchange recently went live with its cooperation with Deutsche Börse Market Data + Services
Nodal Exchange launched its cooperation with Deutsche Börse Market Data + Services on May 1st, 2024 to provide access to real-time US energy market data to a broad range of market participants in both the US and Europe.
Nodal Exchange makes both its real-time intraday and end-of-day market data available via Deutsche Börse’s Consolidated Exchange Feed (CEF). This offering includes a set of power futures contracts that are geographically representative of the broader US power market, as well as market data for the world’s largest set of environmental futures and options contracts. Nodal’s robust environmental data offering covers over 70 U.S. environmental markets including renewable energy certificates, carbon emissions, voluntary carbon credits, and renewable fuel credits.
This partnership significantly reduces the barriers to accessing Nodal’s market data, as existing Deutsche Börse CEF clients can now receive the data through existing channels, which minimizes development and integration efforts. Customers that are not already connected to CEF also benefit, as Nodal’s market data becomes accessible to hundreds of market data vendors within Deutsche Börse’s existing network.
