In preparation for the upcoming clock change on Sunday 31st March 2019, Nord Pool will be offering a test simulation of our auction platforms in the member test environment on Tuesday 5th – Thursday 7th March 2019.
The transition from winter to summer time takes place by turning the clock forward one hour at 02:00 CET on Sunday 31st March. Therefore, Sunday 31st March will have 23 hours. We encourage customers to use this test to actively place orders and check the results to ensure they are familiar with the process.
