ELIX – The new European Electricity Index launched by EPEX Spot and EEX
October 7, 2010-- EPEX Spot and the European Energy Exchange (EEX) will launch a new European Electricity Index. Referred to as ELIX, the new index will be based on the actual market orders in the EPEX Spot auction for the market areas France, Germany/Austria and Switzerland
ELIX will be calculated in an auction based on the aggregated bid/offer curves of the existing market areas and the rules of EPEX Spot. ELIX is equal to the uncongested price, which means a price under the hypothesis of unlimited cross-border capacity be-tween these market areas. Similar to the existing day ahead market results it will be calculated for every hour of the delivery day. In addition, the average value for base (ELIX Day Base) and peak hours (ELIX Day Peak) will be calculated and published.
