Intercontinental Exchange Plans Wind Futures Launch for Seven European Nations

09:43 AM EST, 11/09/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) said Monday it plans to launch wind futures on Dec. 14 for seven European countries, subject to regulatory approval. The 15 cash-settled contracts use wind power output indices from ENWEX and cover onshore, offshore and combined generation in Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain and the UK, the company said. Those countries hold more than 70% of Europe's installed wind capacity, and the contracts let power market players manage wind output risk and electricity price risk, ICE said. Shares of the company were up about 0.5% in early Monday trading. Price: 173.27, Change: +0.97, Percent Change: +0.56
