New pace, same precision: seamless transition to quarter-hourly trading

The Iberian electricity market has taken a significant step forward with the adoption of quarter-hourly trading, which shortens energy settlement periods from 60 to 15 minutes. This transition, aligned with European regulations, aims to improve the integration of renewable energy and enhance market management precision.

At Bluence, we have successfully implemented the new quarter-hourly model in our Trading platform. Thanks to agile and efficient technological adaptation, our clients have been able to submit offers on time in all markets, keeping their portfolios fully available at all times.

Since March 18, the IDA and MIC intraday markets have joined the quarter-hourly trading system, which we were already operating in Terre and Terciaria. This outstanding teamwork reinforces our commitment to excellence and continuous evolution in the dynamic world of energy trading.
