In recent years, the energy field has increasingly come to the fore and the operators within the energy industry are subject to new requirements from many directions. Factors such as globalisation, EU collaboration, climate changes, alternative energy sources, tax legislation, new financial instruments, public aspects such as the demand for reliable electricity supply and heating, as well as technical developments, etc. affect everybody within the energy sector and require them to be adaptable.
