Derivatives Derivatives
As of June 30, 2022, we had an open position of 109,566 tonnes related to LME forward financial sales contracts to fix the forward LME aluminum price. These contracts are expected to settle monthly through December 2024. We also had an open position of 97,500 tonnes related to MWP forward financial sales contracts to fix the forward MWP price. These contracts are expected to settle monthly through December 2022. We have also entered into financial contracts with various counterparties to offset fixed price sales arrangements with certain of our customers ("fixed for floating swaps") to remain exposed to the LME and MWP aluminum prices. As of June 30, 2022, we had 3,277 tonnes related to fixed for floating swaps that will settle monthly through February 2023.
We have entered into financial contracts to hedge a portion of Grundartangi's exposure to the Nord Pool power market (“Nord Pool power price swaps”). As of June 30, 2022, we had an open position of 1,536,700 MWh related to the Nord Pool power price swaps. The Nord Pool power price swaps are expected to settle monthly through December 2023. Because the Nord Pool power price swaps are settled in Euros, we have entered into financial contracts to hedge the risk of fluctuations associated with the Euro ("FX swaps"). As of June 30, 2022, we had an open position related to the FX swaps of €43.1 million that will settle monthly through December 2023.
We have entered into financial contracts to fix a portion of our exposure to the Indiana Hub power market at our Kentucky plants ("Indiana Hub power price swaps"). As of June 30, 2022, we had an open position of 263,520 MWh. The Indiana Hub power price swaps are expected to settle monthly through December 2023.
During the second quarter of 2022, we entered into forward contracts to hedge the risk of fluctuations associated with the Icelandic Krona (ISK) and Euro for contracts related to the construction of the Grundartangi casthouse denominated in these currencies ("casthouse currency hedges"). As of June 30, 2022, we had an open position related to the ISK casthouse swaps of $58.0 million that will settle monthly through July 2023. As of June 30, 2022, we had an open position related to the Euro casthouse swaps of $14.8 million that will settle monthly through February 2024.
