Deregulation of the energy industry has brought about uncertainty of gas and power prices. The uncertainty of price movement along with uncertain future energy consumption creates an enormous risk to energy end users.

Uncertain and correlated price and load movements, combined with data integrity, moral hazard make pricing such a deal of challenge.
