We are continually adding and improving PMA.  One of our current projects is adding another insights category – Investors.  We are compiling the various portfolio’s of the largest generating companies and will display their performance from PMA.  In this section, we will answer the questions asked by investors, such as whose generating assets are at risk given various policies and commodity changes.  Besides identifying the risk, we will calculate the extent of that risk.   This will be another category that can be subscribed to individually.  We will likely include it at no additional cost to those subscribing to the prime package.

Hopefully, it has been demonstrated that PMA can bring you great insights into the power markets at an incredible value. The above analysis can easily pay back your investment  by helping you make better decisions whether trading, planning, purchasing assets, or being an investor in a utility.  PMA will offer a better understanding of the power market from power prices to coal and gas consumption.
