Trading

DC Energy is a market-leading trader of gas and electricity contracts, with broad expertise across a number of energy products. Through our proprietary strategies, we maintain a balanced portfolio comprising a variety of both standard and custom contracts, including hedge products critical to the management of risks inherent in the energy markets. Historically, we have focused on investments related to the locational and temporal value and volatility in transport markets for power and natural gas; since inception our activity has steadily grown, and we have now amassed one of the largest portfolios in the industry.

In addition to trading strategies focused on highly liquid contracts, DC Energy works with creditworthy counterparties to design and provide uncommon hedging products against myriad risks in the energy space. Bulk standard contracts only loosely capture the true risks inherent to producing energy and physically delivering it to distant points; tailored contracts can better manage these natural exposures. DC Energy works with trading partners to meet their custom needs, allowing them to truly manage their risks and fully hedge themselves, in accordance with accounting standards, through products that faithfully map to their physical exposures. By leveraging unique skills in risk management techniques along with rigorous fundamental analysis, we create liquidity at prices well matched to the fundamental economics. Our competitive offerings have allowed us to diversify our risk with a robust and well-balanced portfolio in these specialty products.
