LPS Futures, (part of the LPS Partners group of companies) together with TMX Trayport, a wholly owned subsidiary of TMX Group, announced today that LPS is now live using Trayport’s industry-leading Broker Trading System (BTS) for its new ERCOT LPS Auction contracts. This milestone illustrates TMX Trayport’s commitment to expanding access to North American markets for their global clients.

The web-based platform will host LPS Futures’ (LPS) daily auction sessions, serving as their conduit to LPS broker markets. All transactions remain voice-brokered, with no additional contract needed.

By integrating with Trayport’s Broker trading tools, LPS is set to drive new levels of efficiency, transparency, and liquidity across US power markets. LPS will initially offer ERCOT and PJM contracts, paving the way for a broader range of products and markets in the future.

“I am incredibly proud of the entire LPS ERCOT team, as well as our partners at TMX Trayport, for their hard work in getting this launch off the ground. With our first trades now successfully completed, we are excited to see the impact of our collective efforts in delivering greater efficiency and transparency to the US power markets,” said Thomas Ryan, Managing Partner of LPS Futures.
