Did you know?
Energy is vital to modern society - it underpins commerce, industry and the well-being of individual people.
Modern developed countries rely on a steady supply of high grade energy to operate, which is provided by a complex infrastructure for generating electricity, extracting and refining liquid fuels, and delivering them to where they're needed.
Without an energy supply, essential services, such as transport, lighting, heating, and electrical appliances cannot operate. It is often said that energy fuels the economy of nations.
