Competitive Advantages
Our targeted markets are very large and are undergoing fundamental changes. Energy deregulation and liberalization continue, and customers are driving demand for reliable delivery of energy at predictable prices. Many markets are experiencing tighter supply, higher prices and increased volatility, and there is increasing interdependence within regions and across commodities. Similarly, the broadband industry faces issues of overcapacity and capital constraint even as demand increases for faster, flexible and more reliable connectivity. Enron is in a unique position to provide the products and services needed in these environments. Our size, experience and skills give us enormous competitive advantages. We have:
- Robust networks of strategic assets that we own
or have contractual access to, which give us
greater flexibility and speed to reliably deliver
widespread logistical solutions.
- Unparalleled liquidity and market-making abilities
that result in price and service advantages.
- Risk management skills that enable us to offer
reliable prices as well as reliable delivery.
- Innovative technology such as EnronOnline to
deliver products and services easily at the lowest
possible cost.
These capabilities enable us to provide high-value products and services other wholesale service providers cannot. We can take the physical components and repackage them to suit the specific needs of customers. We treat term, price and delivery as variables that are blended into a single, comprehensive solution. Our technology and fulfillment systems ensure execution. In current market environments, these abilities make Enron the right company with the right model at the right time.
