After more than two years of preparation, the Nord Pool team has successfully launched the 15-minute Market Time Unit (MTU) within the Single Day-Ahead Coupling (SDAC) framework.
This marks a significant step forward for the entire European energy community, unlocking a new level of market efficiency and flexibility.
What the introduction of the 15-minute MTU brings:
- Better integration of renewable energy sources
- More accurate price signals for market participants
- Enhanced cross-border coordination
- Greater power system stability
Nord Pool calls this a shared achievement in Europe’s energy transition — and we fully agree.
Step by step, Europe is moving toward a smarter, more flexible, and climate-resilient energy future.
