The event was officially opened by the Aragon Minister for Economy, Industry and Employment, Marta Gasc\u00f3n<\/b>, and the Managing Director of the Naturgy Foundation, Mart\u00ed Sol\u00e0<\/b>. They both thanked the spokespersons and participants for their attendance and outlined the increasingly active role played by private consumers in the energy sector. Gasc\u00f3n highlighted the fact that Aragon has succeeded in establishing itself as a model for renewables thanks to its own resources and the regulatory changes that \u201chave enabled us to solve the legal problems, offer promoters security and give administrative preference to wind-power and photovoltaic projects\u201d. Sol\u00e0 stressed that \u201cpromoting energy efficiency, sustainable development and technological innovation are the watchwords of the Naturgy Foundation and feature very prominently in the demands of today\u2019s energy users.\u201d The task of closing the seminar fell to the Aragon Government\u2019s Director-General of Energy and Mines, Alfonso G\u00f3mez<\/b>.<\/p>\n

\u00c1lvaro Polo<\/b>, a partner at Accenture Strategy, was the first speaker and he outlined how energy consumption is developing in Spain and the world, as well as its impact on utilities. In his view, electricity supply and demand are both increasing and diversifying and new technologies occupy a key position in these new patterns. \u201cConsumers are already seeing the impacts of this change, such as the convergence of cross-cutting industries, Distributed Generation-Prosumer or the expectations and requirements of new products and services,\u201d said Accenture Strategy\u2019s spokesperson.<\/p>\n
