The Electricity Trading Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% during 2024 and 2029. During this period, the market is also expected to show a growth of USD 123.5 billion. In the dynamic electricity trading market, power exchanges serve as crucial intermediaries, enabling traders, buyers, and sellers to engage in various transactions.
