SUBSCRIBER NOTE: Platts to discontinue Czech peakload power assessments

Following industry consultation, Platts will discontinue some of its Czech forward electricity assessments from August 3, 2015.

Platts will discontinue the following peakload assessments: - Czech week-ahead peakload (CZPTW00) - Czech month-ahead peakload (CZPTM10) - Czech quarter-ahead peakload (CZPTQ10) - Czech year-ahead peakload (CZPTCY1) - Czech year-ahead+1 peakload (CZPTCY2)

Platts is also seeking feedback on a proposal to assess Czech baseload electricity at a differential to the German market for week-ahead and the forward curve. Day-ahead contracts would continue to be assessed on an outright basis.

Separately, Platts is reviewing feedback received on a proposal to discontinue some of its German far month electricity assessments.

The Czech assessments are published on European Power Alert page 210, in Platts Market Data categories EE and PE and in European Power Daily.

Platts continues to invite comments and questions to power@platts.com with copy to pricegroup@platts.com and petra.witowski@platts.com.
