Commentary

Despite efforts to manage demand and develop alternative fuel types, gas and electricity pricing remains volatile. Smart metering, demand-side management, and real-time monitoring and scheduling are among the approaches used to address the supply/demand challenge. Increasingly complex, long-term structures and regulations on ownership during flow compound the decisions market participants must make within shorter timeframes and in response to greater demands for transparency. It is critical for today’s energy businesses to evaluate how information technology can best be applied to address these challenges and others stemming from an aging workforce and infrastructure.
