Nord Pool data correction in market data category ET

Due to an internal error in our automated processing of the Nord Pool Spot "Elspot" area volumes, Platts has been incorrectly publishing hourly volumes for the Bergen NO5 area as Sweden SE and vice versa since March 10, 2010. The symbols affected by this error, all in market data category ET, are listed below.

The error has been corrected in our daily processing as of March 7. In addition, the erroneous back values have been corrected as of the same date.

Platts apologizes for this error, for not spotting it sooner, and for the large number of corrections required. In particular, we apologize to users who access the .csv-format 45-day history file on the platts website using pre-2007 versions of Microsoft Excel, since these corrections will cause that file to have more than 64k rows for the next few weeks. Additional checks have been put in place to ensure this does not happen again.

If you have any questions or comments regarding this announcement, please contact your local Platts Customer Care representative, or email support@platts.com.
