Additional Information

The LEBA UK Power Prompt Indices were introduced in July 2003 initially covering Day Ahead and Weekend UK Power. A Month-Ahead Index was added in 2009 shortly followed by Block indices in April 2010. The prompt market includes base and peak load products for day ahead, weekend and month ahead. Combination blocks are discrete standardised blocks of 4-hour periods as defined by the EFA (Electricity Forward Agreement) system. Baseload products exist for all blocks, peak products only apply to blocks 3, 4 and 5.

The indices are the volume weighted averages to four decimal places of all trades transacted through LEBA members during a given timed period or during the whole of the day, dependent on the particular index.

About Your Company

The London Energy Brokers' Association was formed in 2003 in affiliation with the European Venues and Intermediaries Association (previously the Wholesale Markets Brokers' Association) to represent wholesale markets broking firms active in the Over the Counter (OTC) and exchange traded UK and liberalised European energy markets.

These brokers intermediate and facilitate bilateral contracts to be concluded between banks, trading houses, commercial enterprises, public utilities and integrated energy businesses, providing liquidity and price discovery to these markets as well as contributing significant liquidity to European exchange traded markets. The major products that they deal in include crude oil and refined petroleum products, gas, electricity, coal and emissions. More than $2 trillion worth of energy is traded through LEBA brokers each year, with data from the broker market helping to drive energy markets throughout the world.

LEBA represents the interests of its members and those of the markets in which they operate, with particular support in the areas of regulation and legislation both in the UK and Europe. Of particular importance are the relationships that LEBA has with regulators, Government bodies and other energy market associations. The Association also supports efforts to ensure the highest standards of training and competence and codes of conduct are adhered to.

The Association currently collates and publishes price indices in respect of Carbon, European and UK Gas and Power and Coal and full details of these can be found in our Market Data section. In addition, the association collects and publishes frequent statistics covering the size and scope of the member firms' activities in the wholesale energy markets.
