Über den Bereich
Imagine walking into a room where every screen shows live prices that decide whether millions of households have light, whether factories run or stop, and whether renewable energy gets used or curtailed.
That’s our trading floor.
Here, terawatts of electricity, billions of cubic meters of gas, and millions of tons of CO₂ certificates change hands every day. One good trade can save (or earn) tens of millions of euros. One bad decision can cost the same in minutes.
This isn’t “finance” detached from reality. The energy we trade and hedge keeps:
* Wind and solar farms profitable across half of Europe
* Germany’s heavy industry running 24/7
* Hospitals, data centers, and electric vehicle chargers powered even when the sun doesn’t shine and the wind dies
* Entire countries balanced when France’s nuclear fleet trips or Norwegian gas flows stop
When a storm knocks out wind in the North Sea, when temperatures drop 10 °C overnight, or when a single transmission line fails – the market explodes, and our traders (together with people like you) are the first line of defense for price stability and security of supply.
You won’t just “analyze data.”
You’ll sit two meters away from the proprietary power trader, the gas trader, the origination desk, and the meteorologist. If your model signals a 30% price spike in the next four hours, the desk acts on it – instantly. That’s real adrenaline. That’s real impact.
