CEGH GreenGas Platform:

CEGH launched, as one of the first players on the gas market, the CEGH GreenGas Platform in April 2022. It is the first platform to support the decarbonization of the gas markets by providing trading possibilities for Green Gases. It will be a marketplace for biogas supply and demand as well as for green hydrogen, once green hydrogen becomes available on the market.

If you are interested in what we created to support the change in the energy system and how you can benefit from it, have a look on our website www.cegh.at/en/greengas or directly on the CEGH GreenGas Platform.

 

CEGH GreenHydrogen Index:

In December 2022, CEGH launched the second project to support the energy transition: The CEGH GreenHydrogen Index!

Again, as one of the first players on the gas market, CEGH has started publishing the CEGH GreenHydrogen Index as an index for the production costs of Green Hydrogen in Austria. The Index will serve as a price reference for Green Hydrogen in Austria and in Central Europe.

If you are interested in the different kinds of green hydrogen and further details about the CEGH GreenHydrogen Index, have a look on our website CEGH Greenydrogen Index Specifications or directly on the CEGH GreenHydrogen Index website to see past and current values.

Gottfried Steiner, CEO of CEGH: “2022 was again an extremely challenging year for the Energy Markets and especially the Gas Markets – a year of uncertainties, extremely volatile gas prices and a series of political interventions impacting the industry strongly. Liquidity suffered overall – the CEGH-VTP volume in Austria decreased year-to-year by 15%. However, we were providing in this challenging time a valuable and secure service with the exchange markets of EEX and CEGH which grew by 84% compared to 2021. A big Thank You to our customers for their trust in our services. In 2023, we will continue working on services supporting the energy transition – notably our CEGH GreenGas Platfom and the CEGH Green Hydrogen Index.”
