As the industry experiences a swirling cauldron of changes, it presents energy traders with innumerable opportunities and risks. Continuing to boost strategic decision-making with the help of analytical tools, ETRM companies are creating cross-asset multi-model platforms that are flexible and integrate various aspects of the value chain. This even call for more emphasis on asset management in addition to management of risks associated with contract portfolio and supply chain logistics. In that regard, ETRM in the days to come is expected to conduct holistic, enterprise-wide management of all physical and financial trades alongside the lifecycle of an energy commodity. With that being said, proactive efforts are being made to deploy ETRM as a service in the cloud to introduce modularity, lower costs, counter risks, and improve effectiveness. In today's digital ecosystem, it has thereby become critical for CIOs to choose suitable technology and the best vendors that are at the forefront of efficiently tackling the challenges across the ETRM realm.
