Additional year for German Dark/Clean Dark Spreads

As a result of increasing liquidity at the far end of curve and the important role German dark and clean dark spread analysis plays in identifying hedging opportunities, Platts is extending daily assessments of its existing 35% efficiency German dark spread and clean dark spread by one further year (year-ahead +2). The assessments would be published in Platts European Power Daily, Coal Trader International, Platts European Power Alert and in Platts Market Data. Platts has added an additional assessment in US$ per Megawatt Hour.

Launch date is scheduled for January 7, 2013.
