Silicon Valley of energy trading

Aalborg:
a leading hub for energy trading in Europe

Aalborg has emerged as one of Europe’s most dynamic cities for energy trading – and with good reason. Here, technological innovation, deep market expertise and the green transition converge in an environment defined by ambition and specialisation.

Part of a thriving ecosystem

Norlys Energy Trading is proud to be part of this thriving ecosystem. From our base in Aalborg, we trade physical and financial energy products – including power, gas and certificates – supported by a culture and organisation designed to take responsibility in a fast-moving and complex market.

We’re not alone. Leading firms such as Centrica Energy, Yggdrasil, and several specialised trading companies have also chosen Aalborg as their home. At the same time, AAU Energy plays a vital role as a research partner and knowledge hub – closely aligned with market needs and actively shaping the talent and solutions that will define the future of energy trading.

Northern anchor of Europe’s energy corridor

Jutland is increasingly recognised as the “Silicon Valley” of energy trading. Central Jutland hosts strong players like InCommodities, Danske Commodities and Mind Energy, while Aalborg stands out as the northern anchor of this energy corridor. Together, these regions are helping shape the future of European energy markets – and we see the impact every day.

Built on collaboration and long-term thinking

This development is no coincidence. It’s the result of deliberate choices – built on data, collaboration and long-term thinking.
We move forward with insight – and with intent.
