PECC Energy Forum
Energy Services Workshop


The PECC Energy Forum will hold a workshop on energy services in Kuala Lumpur on May 15, 2001.  The one-half day program will follow a workshop on e-commerce being prepared by the Korea Energy Economics Institute.  The two programs will precede the next meeting of the APEC Energy Working Group which will be held May 17-19.

The energy services workshop will focus on an important component of the energy services chain:  energy transactions carried out over information technology platforms--i.e. e-commerce.  The goal of the workshop is to examine the growing energy sector and the emergence of a variety of new services currently reshaping the energy market.  The workshop will look at the role of services in natural gas, electricity and the environment.  Ultimately, it will attempt to identify specific policy and regulatory impediments that negatively affect efficient region-wide energy information technology transactions.
