IDC conducted a survey of 1,730 energy consumers worldwide across diverse age groups and market types to assess their satisfaction with energy suppliers’ products and services, communications and interactions, and customer experience. The findings of IDC's "Energy Insights: Energy Consumer Survey" have been broken out into a series of reports that analyze key insights revealed by the data, titled the "Worldwide Energy Consumer Survey Discovery Series."
Part 2 of the survey report series, “Energy Customer Interactions and Communication Channel Preferences,” looks specifically at consumers’ attitudes toward their interactions with energy suppliers, assessing key interaction points across the customer experience (CX) and factors like interaction frequency, length, and channels leveraged. The survey insights can help energy suppliers focus their CX enhancement and capability-building efforts on what will make the most impact, while gaining a better understanding of the larger market shift in the consumer-supplier relationship.
