We understand the energy sector is facing unprecedented pressures from a reshaping marketplace

Energy providers are facing unprecedented pressures from a rapidly changing marketplace. Grid modernization, government regulation, technological advances, cyber-security threats, rising expectations from consumers and shareholders, and the falling cost of renewable energy sources are just some of the issues that are converging to disrupt decades-old systems and business models.

Customer service has become a key factor in maintaining your customer base. Transforming the landscape for energy providers, whether they are operating in seasoned or newly deregulated markets is imperative. Business and residential customers alike are demanding smart solutions to manage energy consumption and cut costs, thereby expanding the customer service model from transactional to relationship oriented. ESCOs are finding that the road to success in the digital age calls for a strategic data-driven approach in which innovation and improvements are directed by customer insights and analytics.

In recent years, the realization of the energy sector has spread across deregulated markets. Consumers have come to expect the same type of personalized experience from their ESCO as they do with the utility company. Customers want to receive world-class service which includes: a transparent billing process, mobile apps, digital self-service, real-time communication, and proactive notifications, among others.

For ESCOs, investments in updating to digital transformation must be balanced by optimizing operational efficiencies and cutting costs. Consumers want ESCOs and utilities to provide advanced technology, but without raising their rates. Even as ESCOs take steps to becoming more resilient, they often find themselves under increased public scrutiny in the wake of pressure from energy commissions responses because of unscrupulous behavior from competing ESCOs.

Top Customer Service Challenges for ESCOs

Consumerism has infiltrated the energy sector and is transforming the service delivery models for both regulated and deregulated utility companies. Energy providers are expected to deliver a customer experience that rivals the likes of best-in-class service providers like Amazon and Apple, while operating with extreme efficiency to keep costs down and pricing in line with new competitors on the market. The following are key service-related challenges facing ESCOs:

Presenting a personalized, consultative approach to customer relationship management. Business and residential customers alike are demanding solutions from their utility companies to help them manage energy consumption and cut costs.
