12.07.2012 + + + With the launch of Trayport GlobalVision ETS an additional market maker for both markets (spot and futures) at CEGH Gas Exchange of Wiener Boerse has become active: RWE Supply and Trading GmbH started market making at July 6, a further important milestone for CEGH in developing the Gas Exchange to an attractive trading platform for Central Europe.

The attractiveness of CEGH also is reflected in the increasing number of new members at this trading platform: by today, CEGH already has 146 registered members, compared to 134 by end of Q1/2012. Currently in average every week a new member registers at Central European Gas Hub.

By the end of 2012, CEGH is planning to launch the CEGH Gas Exchange Within Day market of Wiener Boerse, also utilizing the Trayport ETS system. And by January 2013 the current flange-based trading will be migrated to a single virtual trading point on top of an entry-exit system with CEGH as the operator of the “Virtual Trading Point (VTP)”, concentrating the existing liquidity in one national trading point.
