ANRE wants to discourage speculation on the energy market by reducing the guarantee on wholesale contracts

The National Energy Regulatory Authority (ANRE) is proposing new rules for wholesale electricity transactions, aimed at discouraging speculators. ANRE suggests reducing the guarantee from 30% to 5% for contracts with delivery over 6 months and 10% for those of 6 months or less. The exception will be contracts with continuous double-trading. This measure aims to strengthen the transaction guarantee mechanisms, given the financial risks and speculation on the energy market.
