Platts launches a restructured M2M Power product

Platts will launch its M2MS-Power product on July 1, 2013. This new product will provide M2MS Forward Curves daily for 120-months (10 years) for Power for all 48 Power hubs in North America, currently covered by the Platts M2M Power product. The M2MS-Power product will also contain as an add-on, daily 120-month Historical Volatility Curves for all of the hubs. Once a month, a 240-month (20-year) version of all forward and volatility curves will be provided. The curves will be broken up into five regional packages. A sixth package, containing the curves associated only with Platts editorial hubs, i.e. hubs for which Platts editors provide daily assessments of Power forward prices, will also be available. The M2MS-Power product will replace the currently produced M2M Power one. For subscribers to both M2MS-Power and M2MS-Gas packages, the deliveries will also contain as add-ons daily 120-month Heat Rate, Spark Spread and Historical Price Correlation curves. The curves will be calculated for all M2MS-Power hubs and selected M2MS-Gas hubs. Once a month 240-month (20-year) versions of all curves will also be produced.
