The Role
Who are we?
An electricity exchange for the energy transition.

ElectronX™ is a new electricity market designed to enable precision risk management, volatility hedging opportunities, and the monetization of power assets for all energy market participants. As a CFTC-regulated financial exchange (subject to approval), ElectronX will offer derivatives products that capture the intraday price fluctuations of our rapidly changing electrical grid—helping to smooth the financial path of clean energy adoption across the nation.

  • Identify inefficiencies and implement scalable solutions

Operational Support & Growth
  • Oversee daily trading operations and system monitoring
