A Commission spokesperson says that it is not in a position to share volume or price data as the signing of contracts occur outside of the platform. But by failing to back up whether this tool is fit for purpose, Brussels not only proves that the platform wastes limited resources, but more importantly it shows an EU that is barreling through energy policy without proper scrutiny.
