NASDAQ OMX Commodities and Nord Pool ASA will change the content, location and file names of the files relating to the financial power and carbon market on Nord Pool's FTP server (ftp://ftp.nordpool.com ftp://ftp.nordpool.com ). The changes will make all information from all of the more than 50 files updated daily available in only three new files, thereby simplifying handling of historical data for NASDAQ OMX Commodities and Nord Pool ASA. The new files are already available, and will be updated together with the old files until 12 February, 2010. After that date, only the new files will be updated. The old files will remain in place in order to preserve the historical record.
