Mission

In 2016, the year of the full liberalization of the electricity business, MPX was launched as Japan’s first forward curve distribution service for wholesale electricity trading. In a rapidly changing business environment, we believe that providing timely and continuous fair value information on electricity is an essential service for revitalizing electricity trading.

Since its launch, based on Mitsubishi Research Institute's long-standing industry knowledge and our partner KYOS's experience in the European market, we have provided innovative original market information services, data platforms, and cutting-edge risk solutions, contributing to the growth and innovation of our customers' electricity businesses. Moving forward, the MPX team will continue to support our customers' businesses with the modeling technologies and solutions we have cultivated.
