Electricity Contract Indexes April 2022, Issue 157

By Lydia Maclean, April 26, 2022

The CFD index fell by around 20% this month, not because contract prices fell, but because nine of the 16 CFDs included in the index have terms of five years or greater. This tends to average out some of the high prices currently making up the ASX forward curve.Four CFDs have terms of 10 years.
