From Budgeted to Realized: Structuring Hedges that Deliver on Forecasts

In this webinar, Dr. Gary Dorris, CEO at Ascend Analytics, Dr. Brent Nelson, Managing Director of Markets and Strategy, Dr. Carlos Blanco, Managing Director of Risk Management and ESG, and Tyler Pritchard, Senior Energy Analyst, demonstrate how asset owners can structure hedges that translate forecasts into realized cash flow while avoiding misalignment between asset capabilities to deliver power and financial hedge  obligations.  The webinar also discusses expected revenue uplift from forward market hedging in ERCOT and why Ascend believes forward markets are overpricing the scarcity risks.

In this webinar, participants will learn how to:

• Assess how seasonal volatility and scarcity-driven pricing dynamics shape hedge performance

• Structure hedge instruments to reduce forecast variance while accounting for market variability and physical deliverability

• Evaluate hedge suitability and costs of hedging when forward prices exceed fundamental expectations
