Nextgen is the only Australian owned broking company in this market.
Nextgen brokers take the time (and have the expertise) to understand each client’s business and help them achieve their energy aims.

NextGen’s Environmental Broking Services

Nextgen provides a marketplace for OTC (over the counter) transactions between wholesale clients in electricity and environmental products. Nextgen can also provide access to the SFE (Sydney Futures Exchange) electricity traded contracts. Our clients include many of the country’s largest energy producers and retailers, as well as the energy trading departments of large financial institutions.

As a neutral intermediary, Nextgen takes no proprietary positions. What Nextgen concentrates on in facilitating the trading of energy products is ensuring that both parties gain long-term benefits and satisfaction from the transaction. This can only be achieved by having a total understanding of the industry, market trends and developments, and the requirements of our clients. Cultivating such understanding takes time and effort. It also requires technical knowledge and skills that can take years to develop. That’s why our brokers are energy experts first and foremost.

Trading in the environmental sector has experienced considerable growth in recent years. Federal and state legislation that has been implemented to tackle the issues of atmospheric emissions and renewable energy drive much of this activity. There are now a number of instruments that are actively traded within the Australian and offshore markets. Nextgen is clearly the market leader in this area. Using our in-depth market experience and access to the full liquidity of the market, we can find you a counter party (buyer or seller) for your environmental trading needs.
