The asset owners in the electric sector are a critical stakeholder group. They run their organizations very differently based on the type of utility and the geographical region in which they belong. The generation mix, the service territory demographic, and the revenue models differ considerably. To do business with asset owners requires a deep understanding of their economic models, their technological and business priorities and the regulatory framework in which they operate. In this presentation I will try to shed light on these aspects of the utility industry by surveying leading IOUs, Municipals and Cooperatives across the US. The aim will be to inform the audience so they can engage in more effective business transactions with utilities and deliver product and services that they truly need.
