Why energy strategies offer metals producers real competitive advantage

Metals production has always been a highly energy-intensive business. More often than not, decisions about energy supply and cost can determine the success or failure of the whole enterprise. For this reason energy strategy is truly an essential component of corporate strategy, and moreover, a real driver of competitive advantage.
In arriving at a clear view on corporate strategy, metal companies are being forced to address an unprecedented combination of energy challenges:
• Significant volatility in energy and metals prices
• Increasing disruptions to energy supply
• Substantial variation in energy prices across regions
• Limited access to reliable and affordable energy
Wood Mackenzie has prepared a Perspective, Powering Ahead, which examines these issues and proposes ways in which they can be addressed successfully. To receive a copy of this perspective, please 'register your interest' above.
