FuelEU pooling market slows during the summer period
The OceanScore Pool-Price Index (OPX) stands at €118.90/tCO₂e in August, down from €131.75/tCO₂e in July. August offer levels range from €110 to €170/tCO₂e, compared with €115 to €180/tCO₂e in July, with both ends of the observed range moving lower.
Market activity has been subdued during the summer holiday period, with limited activity across the FuelEU pooling market. Against this quieter backdrop, available offers continue to reflect differing seller strategies and underlying surplus generation costs.

Posted offers remain the strongest primary reference for capturing current market conditions, particularly during periods of limited transaction activity. They provide a broader and more continuously available view of the market than completed deals and make the index less dependent on individual transactions or providers. The result is a transparent and reliable benchmark that continues to provide visibility into FuelEU surplus pricing even when market activity is limited.
