Gas and power utilities face high energy price fluctuations on both the supply side (their input fuels) and the demand side (the prices of their own products). They need risk management on the physical and financial side for supply management, hedging and trading, in order to control a complex mix of assets, contracts and regulatory obligations.

 

Utilities demand accurate reporting tools to manage regulatory compliance and to meet green objectives. Diversified utilities need an integrated portfolio view to manage credit, market and regulatory risks, and require analytics to simulate the impact of risk events.
