SPOT CER

BlueNext is the only exchange in the world that trades Spot CERs.

The Spot CER white list shows the complete list of credits that can be traded on the Exchange. These projects are selected using objective criteria determined by BlueNext's Expert Committee of market participants (Barclays Bank, BNP Paribas, Citigroup, E.ON Energy Trading, Electrabel, Endesa Generación, ENEL Trade, Fortis Bank Nederland, Mercuria, Orbeo, RWE, Shell).

The BlueNext system automatically filters out certain credits. For instance, projects relating to nuclear activities and to Land Use, Land Use Change and Forestry (LULUCF) will be excluded from the list, in accordance with the EU Linking Directive; also credits originating from hydroelectric projects with a generating capacity equal or exceeding 20MW are excluded.
