Two markets in one single tool

capsquare is an electronic platform to buy or sell on the secondary market natural gas transmission capacity in the networks of Fluxys (Belgium) and/or GRTgaz (France):

  • Sell - If you hold capacity you do not intend to use, you can valorize it at market price by selling it through the capsquare platform.
  • Buy – If you are looking to buy capacity, capsquare provides an alternative source for the primary market.

     

Swift exchange of short and medium term capacity

capsquare is a powerful alternative for other currently available secondary capacity market tools such as bulletin boards. These take too much time to serve short and medium term needs. capsquare, by contrast, introduces swift trading of day-ahead capacity and other short-term products while offering products for the medium term as well.
