The three options in detail
Self-managed
You handle the paperwork yourself, hire an ENAC verifier and negotiate directly with an Obligated Party. No commissions, but requires technical knowledge and time.

Frequently asked questions
What is the best option to sell my ESCs?
It depends on your situation. If you lack technical know-how and want a risk-free process, CAE Market is the simplest option: we handle everything at no cost until you get paid. If you're a sector professional, self-management gives you full control but requires time and expertise.
How much does CAE Market charge to manage my ESCs?
We only charge a commission on the final amount you receive. If you don't get paid, neither do we. No upfront fees, no hidden costs and no long-term commitment.
Can I switch options if I've already started with an energy agent?
Yes, as long as you haven't signed an exclusivity agreement. If your ESCs haven't yet been processed with MITECO, you can start the process with CAE Market without issue.
What advantage does CAE Market have over an energy agent?
Full transparency, zero cost until you get paid, direct access to Obligated Parties and a 24-hour response time. Many energy agents charge commissions upfront or keep high percentages without guaranteeing the outcome.
