ElectronX is building a stock market for electricity trading | TechCrunch
Briefly

Renewable energy, while clean and cost-effective, presents challenges due to its intermittent nature. ElectronX aims to tackle this by developing an electricity trading exchange that enables buyers and sellers to effectively manage risk and hedge against price volatility. With $10 million in new funding, ElectronX seeks to revolutionize power trading, moving beyond traditional energy assumptions rooted in coal generation. By facilitating intra-hour trading of electricity capacity, the startup hopes to leverage the quick responsiveness of renewable resources and batteries, enhancing market flexibility and reliability as renewables increasingly dominate the energy landscape.
Batteries act as a hedge against disruptions from intermittent renewable energy, but markets can offer a flexible solution to manage risk and volatility.
ElectronX is building an exchange for electricity trading to help both buyers and sellers manage risk and hedge against the unpredictability of renewables.
