“…EU gas supply and demand balance were modeled by Ellis et al [36] in a scenario approach for investment decisions and by Perner and Seeliger [37] to map the growing supply gap due to Europe's limited indigenous gas resources. The UK gas market was modeled by Pagliero [38].…”

A B S T R A C TOrganizational behavior and stakeholder processes continually influence energy strategy choices and decisions. Although theoretical optimizations can provide guidance for energy mix decisions from a pure physical systems engineering point of view, these solutions might not be optimal from a political or social perspective. Improving the transparency of our vision sharing and strategy making processes in a systematic way is therefore as important as the actual systems engineering solutions proposed by the modeling tools. Energy trend forecasting and back-casting, scenarios and system analysis have matured into powerful modeling tools for providing advice on optimizing our future energy solutions. The integrated use and iterative improvement of all these approaches can result in energy systems that become better optimized. Such an integrated approach is particularly important to those who have decision-making power over our future energy direction. Some of the challenges and opportunities for energy strategists that strive to promote optimal decisions on our future energy solutions are highlighted in this state-ofthe-art review.

“…Former cases where similar questions like here however have been addressed have also, in contrast to this study, mainly been focusing only one side of the issue, in assuming that corporations have unlimited ways of acting (meaning that the complexity within the technological structures per se is not included within the analysis) [34]. Also; the [34] study only focuses the gas market which give us limited value for our purpose here.…”

The deregulation of energy industries in combination with internationalization and a changing Europe requires strategic efforts to be undertaken in a different way than earlier. Policy activitites do not control this sector to the same extent as before-corporate strategies and activities have also become important to understand. During 2002 the Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences engaged more than one hundred experts from industry, government and academia to analyze energy within the project "Energy Foresight-Sweden in Europe". One part of the project, the structure foresight panel, sketched out four different scenarios that each describes a possible European setting for the energy industries-meaning: corporate action was in the center. In this article the aim is to evaluate the result from that scenario project in hindsight and to compare it with other similar scenario projects in this field.

“…To date, Gazprom has made Russia an important supplying country of natural gas for Europe. Ellis et al . (2000) also disclosed in their study that the integration of the European market for natural gas included the vertical integration of up and down streams, with competitive market and gas price subject to reform.…”

This study continues the issue of Russian economic reform in the study by Quast and Locatelli (1997) and extends the same reform in many aspects. In this paper, an in‐depth study is also made in the reform strategies and the business performance of Gazprom, Russia's natural gas company, as Russia tried to curtail its domestic political and economic problems by means of the organisational reform (privatisation) of Gazprom starting in 1993. This study discovered that Gazprom had truly been a private corporation before 2005; however, it became practically a state‐run business after 2005. We further disclose that Gazprom's business performance after the reform did not come from the corporate organisational reform but rather resulted from the increase of natural gas prices and was irrelevant to the production capacity. Data in many aspects, such as the adoption of privatisation, liquefied natural gas, sole proprietorship, merger and the strategy of market diversification, are used in this study to sustain Gazprom's business performance after the reform. However, it is believed that the key factor of these changes was whether Russia's ruling party could really transform a state‐run business into a private enterprise, as otherwise, any economic reform would be a transient happening for the Russian economy.
