Définition & Explication
Energy supply covers the delivery of electricity, gas and fuels through grids, terminals and storage to industrial and private consumers. It matters to freight forwarding and logistics in two directions: it drives the operating cost of a company's own fleet and facilities through diesel, power and gas prices, and it governs customers' transport volumes, because energy-intensive sectors such as chemicals, steel, glass and paper throttle production when supply is tight or prices spike. Disruptions at individual nodes — a strike at an import terminal, a pipeline outage, low water on the inland waterways — therefore feed through to cargo volumes and freight rates with a delay, even when no means of transport is directly affected.
