The world’s most efficient power exchange, Nord Pool, has come a long way since carrying out its trades on a whiteboard.

Nord Pool is a power exchange that covers the Norwegian, Swedish, Finnish and Danish markets. It is widely considered to be the most efficient power exchange in the world, and it is the most liquid in Europe. The stated goal of the exchange is to allow competition to make the electric power sector less expensive and more efficient, and consequently save resources for society as a whole. Nord Pool offers two product groups, one for the physical market and one for the financial market. Trading on the financial market is carried out on OMX’s CLICK platform, and clearing on OMX’s SECUR platform. CLICK™ is the world’s most widespread marketplace solution. Known for its ease of use and simplicity, it is also highly suited to the energy market – across all borders. Any term, any structure and any energy type can be accommodated in the system. In addition, the CLICK exchange system’s reliability has been documented at the cash-settled derivatives market at Nord Pool and the physically settled futures market at EL-EX and UKPX.
