Sustainable fuels have their own unique characteristics that make them distinct from more traditional physical coal, oil and gas trading. Trading is often done as a higher number of smaller parcels, and fuels are typically sourced from a larger range of suppliers. enTrader automates the trading process, whilst at the same time handles the physical transactions, financial and regulatory reporting.

enTrader’s proven Logistics module is the right choice for all sustainable energy management, and is used by some of Europe’s largest energy companies for sustainable energy trading. Entrader Logistics extends the standard trading, portfolio management and settlement, to include comprehensive stock management, emissions management and qualities tracking.

enTrader provides a fully audited system that is able to capture all relevant data required for accurate Greenhouse gas emissions, environmental and sustainability reporting. The flexible attribute structure allows disparate sustainable development ordinances (such as Redcert and ISCC) to be incorporated into the a single standard framework, while maintaining the ability to add new schemes through system configuration


enTrader’s Logistics module allows complete inventory and stock management of biomass and biofuels stock piles, tank storage, bunkers and silos. Qualities and volumes of fuel stock can be accurately accounted throughout the product lifecycle. The system includes comprehensive on-site product handling capabilities, including on-site transfers of biomass/biofuels, product conversions e.g. converting biomass straw to pellets, off-site transfers, sales and fuels consumption.

enTrader provides traceability and fuel source attribute management of sustainable fuels from origin through to consumption or onward sale. Fine grain transaction management of fuels by vessel, rail, road or pipeline can be planned with differing scenarios. Supplier orders can be generated based on these planned fuel requirements, and the details of actual fuel movement comprehensively captured. These fuel movements can be linked back to the original sales to provide accurate contracted, planned and actual quality and volume monitoring.


Launched less than 3 years ago, enTrader is already in use at eight organisations across Europe including E.ON and RWE.

Key to its success are its design to cope with short period trading of any commodity, product or currency etc. Its open SAAS architecture, web browser technology and excellent API allow clients and system integrators to easily develop bespoke requirements and user configurable reports.

We have a 100% satisfied client base – all referencable - with applications ranging from retail hedging and flexible product trading, domestic and commercial retail portfolio management, wholesale trading and risk management to the most comprehensive fuel scheduling, logistics and heat accounting functionality available.
