Limited demand growth, reduced access to affordable capital, and increasing competition are challenging the Energy and Utilities sector. To navigate this, robust energy procurement solutions and platforms for utility procurement are crucial for sustained growth in this evolving landscape.
Energy Procurement & Utility Industry Challenges
The imminent game-changers for the energy & utility industry include:
- Rapid technological advancements and cost reductions in distributed generation create competitive pressures on energy procurement, compelling utilities to distribute investment and operational costs across shrinking customer bases
- Government policies, tax incentives, subsidies, and initiatives promoting energy conservation, demand reduction, net-metering mandates, and similar measures have both intended and unintended consequences, significantly impacting energy procurement strategies
- Increasingly stringent environmental regulations affecting generation, alongside continuous requirements to modernize existing power grids, necessitate utility investment, impacting energy procurement despite potential declines in demand growth
- Emerging trends in associated markets, like the rise of electric-powered vehicles and the need for new infrastructure, pose opportunities for utilities to navigate competitive industry conditions and sustain profitability and credit access through adept energy procurement strategies
