Market deregulation, combined with European Union calls for greater efficiency, has led to significant changes in the energy industry. New players, offering new energy concepts and lower prices, are fuelling fiercer competition.
This new environment presents fresh challenges. In traditionally ring-fenced markets, such as gas and electricity, incumbents now face competition. Established suppliers are being forced to implement new business models and incentives for existing and potential customers – and competitive differentiation is of increasing importance. The growing impact of local and regenerative energy sources, and the unbundling of network infrastructure and supply, places new demands on processes and network management. Increasing internationalization, plus consolidation at regional level, have also impacted the industry. Companies must restructure and streamline processes – with the help of state-of-the-art information and communication technologies (ICT).
