Price Load Profiles and PPAs at Fair Market Value

Get an arbitrage-free hourly and 15-minute price curve, built every working day from traded EEX and Euronext futures across 32 European bidding zones.

Your High-Resolution Price Forward Curve for Originators, Traders, Structurers, and Quant Teams

Volue Forward Curves delivers the High-resolution Price Forward Curve (HPFC), turning traded power futures into a continuous hourly and 15-minute price curve. 

Power futures settle as base and peak blocks but pricing a load profile or PPA needs an hourly curve that ties back to the traded market. Building one in-house across many areas is a time-consuming and heavy data-engineering process, and stale curves create arbitrage risk. 

Volue shapes the curve from its own SpotEx, Forward, and residual-load forecasts, then merges futures across frequencies, so period averages always match the market. It is delivered through the API, with Python and Excel. 

KEY FEATURES

Arbitrage-Free Curves

Period averages always tie back to the traded EEX and Euronext settlement prices, so the curve stays fully consistent with the market and free of arbitrage. 

Image coding

Hourly and 15-Minute Shape

Block base and peak futures are distributed into a continuous hourly and 15-minute curve, giving every market time unit its own price, the shape you need to price a profile.  

Model-Based Shaping

The high resolution shape is built from Volue's own SpotEx, Forward, and residual-load forecasts, a modeling effort that is hard and resource-intensive to replicate. Based on fundamental modelling, rather than statistical methods, the shape will reflect expected market development, not historical patterns. 

Daily, Flexible Delivery

Get up to four curves per area, a merged curve plus monthly, quarterly, and yearly, refreshed every working day across 32 European bidding zones and delivered via API, Python, and Excel.

Arbitrage-Free Curves

Period averages always tie back to the traded EEX and Euronext settlement prices, so the curve stays fully consistent with the market and free of arbitrage.

Stop stitching block futures into hourly curves by hand across many price areas.

Value Profiled Positions

See what your generation or demand is worth, hour by hour, at market prices.

One View for Pricing and Risk

Feed one consistent forward curve straight into your pricing and risk systems.

USE CASES

Originators and structurers price PPAs and load profiles, but power futures settle as base and peak blocks with no hourly or 15-minute shape. Volue Forward Curves distributes those futures into a continuous hourly and 15-minute curve that ties back to traded settlement prices. You price profiles, PPAs, and structured deals at fair market value, and defend them against the traded market. 

Quant and risk analysts need a forward curve they can pull straight into pricing and risk models, but in-house curves are inconsistent and hard to keep consistent with settlements. Volue Forward Curves delivers tagged curves through the API, in Python and Excel, refreshed every working day. You integrate a consistent curve into your systems without building and maintaining it yourself.

Traders, hedgers, and asset owners hold profiled positions, generation, consumption, that block prices cannot value accurately. Volue Forward Curves gives a high-resolution price shape consistent with traded futures across the European areas you trade. You value profiled positions against the forward market and see where they stand each working day.
