Market Assessment

Whether selecting a site for a new energy project, launching a new technology, or understanding portfolio risk, an understanding of the market is critical to business success. In an increasingly competitive and dynamic energy marketplace, meaningful market assessment is more than conventional dispatch analysis. The company that knows the players and tracks changing market structure will have the competitive edge. This requires market assessments that interpret the analysis to wring new insights from the data. Competition has taught that energy markets are no longer tidy and predictable, amenable to highly structured models. Anticipating how the competitive balance will be resolved requires judgment and experience in addition to cutting edge tools.
