RWE Trading is RWE‘s interface with the energy wholesale markets

RWE Trading implements the market-

defined benchmarks for the RWE Group’s generation and supply activities.

RWE traders not only deal with

commodities such as power, gas, coal and

  • il, they also actively trade physical and

financial derivatives as well as environmental certificates.

The asset the based commodity positions

  • f RWE Group are sold to or bought from

RWE Trading at wholesale market prices. We consolidate these positions through proprietary trading. This hedging helps us to manage the risks of having very large

  • pen positions in each of the physical

commodity markets.

This business model unites the natural

focus on obtaining the best potential value from the RWE Group’s physical assets with the benefits of financial (proprietary) trading.

RWE’s power sales portfolio

The wholesale markets set the benchmark

RWE places its trust in the liquidity and reliability of the wholesale markets and sells a large part of its production directly into this pan-European market. Of the 164.3 TWh produced by its own power plants in 2006, the RWE Group sold 92.8 TWh on the wholesale markets and 71.5 TWh through sales

RWE Trading – facts and figures

Our power trading volumes have seen consistent growth in recent years. This is just

  • ne indication of RWE Trading’s successful market approach. The slight decline in

2006 was due to politically influenced market distortions in France and Spain.

RWE Trading has a multitude of trading partners

The German wholesale energy market

is not a “members-only club”.

During the first eight months of 2006,

  • nly 6% of RWE Trading’s total trading

volume had been generated by energy trade with the other three major utilities

  • perating in Germany.

The market is internationally oriented

and – except for the industrial customers which are still “abstaining” – intersectoral.

Gas trading

The growth in gas trading further

strengthens the RWE Group’s position in the natural gas markets.

Trading volumes for natural gas have

been stable in recent years and are expected to rise as the Continental European gas markets open and RWE’s gas assets and trading activities are further integrated.

By 2006, gas trading volumes for RWE

Trading in Continental Europe and the UK were around 900 TWh. European gas trading hubs

Cooperation between RWE Trading and RWE Gas Midstream

RWE Gas Midstream will further strengthen

RWE Group’s competitiveness in the increasingly liberalised European gas market.

RWE Gas Midstream bundles the non-

regulated areas of the RWE Group’s gas business (purchase, transport and storage capacity rights).

RWE Trading and RWE Gas Midstream

cooperate closely with each other in the gas business.

RWE Trading will continue to be an active

trader at liquid gas trading points. This business is being integrated by RWE Gas Midstream as part of the commercial

  • ptimisation of the entire gas portfolio of the

RWE Group, ranging from short-to long-term procurement and supply commitments.

Oil trading

RWE Trading’s business model for oil covers global physical commodities and

derivatives trading as well as risk management.

Group-wide synergies include: – Marketing of RWE Dea equity crude (among others North Sea, Dubai, Egypt) – Risk management and hedging of RWE Dea’s physical upstream position – Procurement of fuel oil for RWE power plants – Global derivative expertise for hedging strategies of oil-indexed fuels (e.g. gas) RWE Trading carries out spread transactions between oil products and locations

based on price differentials.

RWE Trading’s role in the world of coal trading

As a significant player in the international

physical coal and freight trading markets, RWE Trading offers a range of products, from basic supply and trading deals to advanced integrated risk management and marketing solutions.

The value of these activities is enhanced

by our active involvement in coal and freight financial derivatives.

RWE Trading is the RWE Group’s interface

with the international coal trading market:

– Physical: >20 million tonnes of coal are

burnt (directly/indirectly) per year, including an increasing amount of coal from abroad

– Derivatives: >100 million tonnes of

derivatives per year

slide-21
SLIDE 21

20

Main drivers of coal trading market and the challenges for RWE’s coal trading business

Rising demand from China and India and the

renaissance of coal-fired power generation in Europe.

Significant increases in ocean freight rates and

coal export prices.

Larger trade flows and higher price volatility,

creating a vibrant market with a very strong international orientation.

Thanks to extensive market knowledge and its

team of dedicated experts, RWE Trading is well positioned to manage the risks presented by a changing market and to offer made-to-measure supply solutions to our customers.

We source from and supply to a number of

different countries and suppliers globally, including long-term basis contracts.

We will also play an active role as a market

maker for new and attractive products.

slide-22
SLIDE 22

Emissions trading

slide-23
SLIDE 23

22

Emissions trading

Optimisation of power, gas and other fuel positions via emissions trading

is a necessary part of European energy markets.

The European Trading System (ETS) combines market forces with politically

imposed caps on emissions. RWE Trading has been a successful participant from the very beginning and is a leading contributor to the rapid development of this market.

We are ready to meet the complex challenges of the ETS market, by handling day-

to-day fluctuations, and by having the tools and experience to hedge long-term

  • risks. For example, we actively support the further development of trading master

agreements.

The ETS will continue to be an important futures market. Although there is a high

degree of volatility in daily trading, there is a also strong long-term element. The CO2 market provides decision makers with valuable input when it comes to planning long-term investments in generation assets/power plants.

Risk philosophy

The Chairman of the Board is the chief risk controller. Professional risk management forms the basis of our successful

energy trading business.

Our strict risk management philosophy is implemented through

the following structures and measures:

– Best-in-class processes for trading, risk controlling and

back office/operations based on banking industry standards

– Integrated management of all trading activities, and independent

evaluation and supervision of market and credit risks using an inter-organisational state-of-the-art trading and risk management system

– Organisational separation of front office and support and

control functions (dual control principle)

– Transactions on the basis of international master agreements

(ISDA, EFET, etc.)

“Marginal power plant” principle: decisive for price formation on the wholesale market

The daily demand on the EEX is countered by a

multitude of offers for electricity from different generation sources. Each power plant type (nuclear, gas, coal, etc.) has marginal costs for its utilisation.

Marginal costs are mainly determined by

“variable costs” for fuels (incl. CO2) and operating resources - costs that are incurred during power plant operation and have to be earned as a minimum.

Starting with the most favourable offer, power

plants are successively called up on the EEX until demand is met.

The offer price of the last power plant needed to

meet this demand (“marginal power plant”) determines the market price for all other power plants.

The power price thus results from the intersection

  • f supply and demand. That is why in case of

high demand prices will rather be determined by power plants with relatively high marginal costs whereas in case of low demand they will rather be determined by lower marginal cost power plants.

he will try to use this opportunity. Different production structures and different fundamental influences result in growing cross-border trading (but not necessarily in growing physical electricity flows)

Four core statements by RWE Trading on power wholesale markets

Functioning wholesale markets are the prerequisite for competition and the ensuing

economic benefits for the European industry.

The European wholesale market for power has shown a very positive development:

just look at the growth rate for traded volumes or the increasing number of market participants.

RWE Trading is one of the leading market participants in Europe and plays an active

part in shaping the wholesale markets.

Markets require a framework and regulation, but overregulation stifles trust in the

markets! Regulation should always focus on promoting competition.
