Today's energy industry is as dynamic as the resource around which it is based.
New technologies and increased global demand are transforming the production
and distribution of energy, power and natural resources derived from
traditional reserves. Consumers, businesses and legislators alike are actively
calling for—and supporting—the development of power from renewable and
alternative sources. Regulators continue to seek an effective balance between
the needs of industry, the environment, and end users.
