Adalta Energy always finds the Optimisation Desk to be professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. 
The price transparency and price quality provided by the Desk is second to none and is a true differentiator between suppliers.

— Luke Fletcher, Energy Training Manager

How it works

Flex Portfolio Solutions allows you to:

Choose between three trading options, which indicate whether you want to hedge independently, or prefer to delegate, within predefined limits, some or all of the hedging decisions, based on calculated risk assessments, to a dedicated Portfolio Manager.

Choose between three support levels, which refer to the extent and frequency of the support you might want to receive - from a few pointers on the market's fluctuations, to daily updates and regular check-in calls.

Take advantage of the expertise of our award winning optimisation desk. This is a specialist, dedicated expert team who can offer market know-how and guidance to help you manage your energy position and spot opportunities. The team will provide market intelligence and risk management, as well as help you define and review a successful hedging  strategy.
