The Energy Trading and Risk Management system (ETRM) was used by Trading and Risk to
manage the CCS energy portfolio for more than 1,200 customers across the Public Sector
with a total spend of more than £1.5 billion per annum. The Energy Trading and Risk
Management system (ETRM) was used to record trade and demand forecasts, calculate
open positions and valuations based on market prices, and serves as Trading and Risk's '
single source of truth' for portfolio reporting and information. CCS was seeking to replace
its current ETRM by sourcing a replacement, cloud based system. This was an off-the-shelf
ready to deploy software procurement, rather than a software development project. The
ETRM would support CCS's ability to provide its customers with risk managed products for
power and gas.
