The Multi Energy Transition – from Fuel Retail to Convenience Retail
The keynote 'The Multi Energy Transition - from Fuel Retail to Convenience Retail' will look at the broadening energy mix at petrol stations, in particular the shift from fossil fuels to synthetic fuels and the sale of charging power at petrol stations. It will also look at how this industry evolution is changing the business model and its players. We show how retail convenience is being rethought by adding innovative vending solutions to shops and charging stations. Using practical examples from oil companies, we explain how these new sales channels are meeting the needs of customers and how the time that customers spend in the store can be used to best effect. Against this backdrop, we discuss the opportunities and approaches these developments offer the industry and how innovative automation and POS systems can support change.
