CET operates as a subsidiary of Copenhagen Energy A/S and is headquartered in Copenhagen, Denmark. Its trading activity is focused on moving power to where it is needed most across the European continent, using deep market understanding, experience, and data science. The firm applies modern technologies and agile development methodologies to build data science solutions that provide deep insights into electricity markets, with a software architecture centered on cloud computing and Python.
