Retailers have been shifting towards a consumer-driven market, which has brought dynamic growth to e-commerce and an ongoing effort to increase revenues while maintaining or even reducing logistics costs. Online shoppers expect their groceries to be delivered the same day or the next, without paying more and with real-time communication at every step of the process. Customers also demand a great experience in physical stores. An empty shelf is bad for sales and customer satisfaction, but having too much supply too early increases costs.

The energy usage in the Netherlands still heavily relies on natural gas. The so called smaller fields are becoming increasingly important with the accelerated phase out of larger fields. However, the dependency of the offshore gas transport network on large fields becomes clearer now these fields have reached the end of their production phase. Elimination of inefficiencies and a continuous reduction of operational costs is crucial to keep supplying gas effectively. In a recent article - published in “Energie in Beweging” - Energie Beheer Nederland B.V. (EBN) explains how far-reaching cooperation and clustering are key in this and how a by ORTEC and EBN developed optimization model contributes to achieve that.
