Energy is a constantly evolving industry with a delicate balance of both regulation and competition in the market. Each day, the United States per capita energy consumption includes 2.6 gallons of oil, 9.7 pounds of coal, and 255 cubic feet of natural gas. Plus, residential daily consumption of electricity is 11.8 kilowatt-hours per person.

Meeting the growing demand for energy in the U.S. requires ongoing, accurate risk assessment and financial planning for municipal and cooperative customers. This is where portfolio management comes in.
