Energy Alert Limited was founded by Mike Coulten and Tristram Scott in summer 2005 to provide a professional, cost effective and best practice risk management solution for supporting flexible utility procurement strategies.

The Energy Alert Team

With over 30 years of energy market and trading expertise gained working for and consulting with many of Europes largest energy suppliers and consumers, Energy Alert Ltd. offers a unique combination of risk management, energy market and information technology solutions to meet your need for real time management of your budget exposure to the highly fragmented, illiquid and volatile energy and emissions forward and futures markets. 

We dont do anything else, period. We dont place contracts, execute trades or provide "market forecasts" or "tips" or have any commerical relationships with energy suppliers or traders.  We provide one thing only, state of the art real time position reporting for commercial buyers.  As such we are always independent and always working ONLY for your interests, we have no other's and hold no positions of our own in the markets in which we operate risk management services.
