In the Diamond Model, the role of government is to encourage and push organizations and companies to a more competitive level, thereby increasing performance and ultimately the total combined benefit. Figure I: Porter’s Diamond Model 1. Factor Conditions After the breakdown of Soviet Union, Russia was still a closed economy. The power sector was mostly owned by the state. There was no competition and thus the following consequences: * Technological innovation was languished * No increase in efficiency * No investment in the sector * Irrational Consumption * Prices, annual production, assignment of quotas to individual producers and consumers were administered by a national regulator. * Natural Gas was the main component in the production of electricity and its price was regulated. * Due to the above factors, RAO UES (Russian Stock Company Unified Energy Systems) was on the verge of bankruptcy. 2. Demand Conditions * Before the entry of foreign players, Russia was still the world’s largest power market in the world. It had an annual demand rate of 2.5% (some analysts predicted 4.2%). * The RTS index reflected the domination of the Russian stock market by oil and gas companies...

...The World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) has identified alarming levels of growth in urbanization and consumption in a new report, and describes the crucial role of business in the transition to sustainability. According to the report, "Business and Development: Challenges and Opportunities in a Rapidly Changing World," published this month by WBCSD, "the world is experiencing a historic shift of economic and political power from the traditional base of industrialized countries to the emerging economies." As the report points out, by 2050, three of the four largest economies -- China, India, and Brazil -- will be those of countries now described as developing. As development in those and other countries intensifies, their populations will become increasingly urban. By 2050, when the world's population is expected to be about 9 billion, 70 percent of the world's population will live in urban environments, with the great majority living in cities in developing countries. "Urbanization is happening fast," the report observes, "And most of it is being poorly managed, putting hundreds of millions of the urban poor in harm's way." As the economic emergence of developing countries continues, global consumption patterns will become increasingly critical. "Global consumption patterns and trends are putting unsustainable and increasing stress on the Earth's ecosystems, the supply of material resources needed for industrial growth, and human social systems...

The increases in consumer demand and supply, prices of oil have been up in the peak ever since. The global production of oil is expected to increase by millions of barrels a day due to new field discovery and new technologies.

As demand of oil increase dramatically, the prices of oil also jump high, making the previously unprofitable fields now profitable and production increases. More and more investors are investing money into the oil field making by producing and invest in new extraction technologies, this is so successful that Leonardo Maugeri, a senior executive at Italian oil major ENI, puts it: “there will be enough oil for at least 100 years.” The fact that there’s still plenty of oil left is driving major’s oil companies to come up with new technologies which also causes the price of oil to rise very high from $80 per barrel to $147 per barrel in 2008. The more oil the companies are planning to suck up, the higher the price of oil will increase. Price of oil will only increase from now on because of the limited of oil left each time...
