The energy and utilities industry serves as one of the primary pillars of global economic growth. Within the industry, the energy component can be broadly categorized into non-renewable and renewable resources. Oil and gas comprise the non-renewable sources of energy, while wind, solar, hydro, geothermal and biomass are some of the key renewable energy sources.

The energy utilities sector also assumes equal significance and is marked by a worldwide effort to make a transition into clean and green energy sources. Implementation of complicated methods of power management also remains another key area of development. Information technology remains a key component of the global energy and utilities sectors. The United States is one of the key regions supporting global energy and utilities development, with European nations also supporting major initiatives.
