Results on the API endpoints will typically be available 30 mins later. This depends on:
- How quickly the auction itself runs - and how quickly results are available - allow around 15 mins for this.
- When we pull the EPEX or Nordpool endpoint to retrieve the data - the details of when we pull the data is on each endpoint reference page.
