Nodal and IncubEx to launch first-ever physically delivered RIN futures
Nodal Exchange and IncubEx announced today the upcoming launch of eight new Renewable Identification Number (RIN) futures and options contracts.
Pending regulatory review, Nodal will list the first-ever physically delivered futures contracts on D3, D4, D5 and D6 RIN markets on November 17, 2020. Complementary RIN options contracts will also be listed that day on the four futures contracts. The new contracts mark the latest expansion of the renewable fuels products group on Nodal, which offers the largest suite of listed environmental contracts in the world.
“The RIN market is the largest renewable fuels credit market and has proven effective in its goal to lower carbon emissions across the transportation sector,” said Nathan Clark, Managing Director at IncubEx. “These new products offer RIN participants a cost-efficient way to hedge price risk in the market.”

Nodal Clear, Nodal Exchange’s clearing house, provides effective credit risk management and superior capital efficiency through the use of portfolio margining. This robust and effective approach to margining, which accounts for the correlations between many different contracts, and different commodities (e.g., power and gas), results in greater capital efficiency for Nodal Exchange participants.
- Nodal’s margin model provides capital efficiencies and stability for market participants.
- Nodal is effectively using the same model parameters since Nodal Clear commenced in October 2015.
