Meteorologist on a Trading Floor

With the rise of wind farms and solar panels, the price of energy is increasingly dependent on the weather – and meteorologists become increasingly important for energy trading companies. In this episode, Danske Commodities’ Head of Meteorology Kim Bentzen talks about what it’s like to work as a meteorologist on a trading floor, how he and his colleagues work closely together with our traders in mapping out our trading strategies – and how he was hired as a bit of an experiment, when he started at Danske Commodities.
