All three assumptions have collapsed. Data center demand, industrial electrification, and heat pump penetration are reshaping load shapes in ways historical regressions miss. Levelized cost of energy analysis for solar vs wind now has to account for curtailment, ancillary revenue, and hybrid configurations, not nameplate economics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Leadership teams that outperform are running rolling primary research on offtaker willingness to pay, siting acceptance, and competitor pipeline conversion rates. They treat these inputs as leading indicators for capacity factor optimization and PPA structuring decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-global-color-9-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-a4fd03b590c3e14e290ee7488fb16a5d wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>According to SIS International Research, developers who front-load B2B expert interviews with grid operators, permitting counsel, and industrial offtakers before site control shorten their time to financial close and secure better tenor terms. The pattern holds across North American, European, and Middle East corridors.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"renewable-energy-market-analysis-beyond-lcoe\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Renewable Energy Market Analysis Beyond LCOE<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Levelized cost is a floor, not a strategy. The projects clearing today compete on shape, firmness, and locational value. That means renewable energy market analysis must incorporate nodal price forecasts, congestion patterns in the grid interconnection queue, and the value of renewable energy certificates in voluntary and compliance markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Corporate offtakers, led by hyperscalers such as Google, Microsoft, and Amazon, have moved past standard virtual PPAs toward 24\/7 carbon-free energy matching. That shift changes what a bankable contract looks like. It also changes what a competitive bid looks like. Developers still pricing on annualized volumetric matching are losing to those pricing hourly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The best assessments of investment risk in renewable energy projects now stress-test three variables together: basis risk, shape risk, and counterparty concentration. A single-tenant PPA with a hyperscaler looks safer than it is once you model the merchant tail after year twelve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<!-- SIS International Research - Energy Investment at a Glance -->\n<div id=\"sisEnStatWrap\" style=\"position:relative; width:100%; max-width:100%; box-sizing:border-box; margin:0 auto; padding:0; font-family:-apple-system,BlinkMacSystemFont,'Segoe UI',Roboto,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; color:#073f64;\">\n\n  <h3 style=\"text-align:center; font-size:clamp(18px,2.4vw,26px); line-height:1.3; margin:0 0 6px 0; color:#073f64; font-weight:700;\">\n    The Energy Transition in Numbers\n  <\/h3>\n  <p style=\"text-align:center; font-size:clamp(12px,1.4vw,15px); margin:0 auto 26px auto; max-width:680px; color:#216896;\">\n    Where global energy capital is flowing as the world moves toward a new age of electricity\n  <\/p>\n\n  <div id=\"sisEnCards\" style=\"display:flex; flex-wrap:wrap; gap:clamp(12px,2vw,18px); width:100%; box-sizing:border-box;\"><\/div>\n\n  <!-- SOURCES -->\n  <p style=\"font-size:clamp(10px,1.1vw,12px); color:#5c7a8c; line-height:1.5; margin:22px 0 0 0; text-align:left;\">\n    Source 1: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iea.org\/reports\/world-energy-investment-2025\/executive-summary\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" style=\"color:#216896; text-decoration:underline;\">World Energy Investment Report<\/a><br>\n    Source 2: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sisinternational.com\/expertise\/industries\/energy-market-research\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" style=\"color:#216896; text-decoration:underline;\">SIS International Energy Market Research<\/a>\n  <\/p>\n\n  <script>\n  (function(){\n    var cards=[\n      {big:'$3.3T', small:'Record annual global energy investment, the highest level ever recorded', bg:'#073f64', fg:'#ffffff', sub:'#bdd6e6'},\n      {big:'$2.2T', small:'Goes to clean energy each year, about two thirds of all energy investment', bg:'#216896', fg:'#ffffff', sub:'#cfe2ee'},\n      {big:'2x', small:'Clean energy now attracts twice the capital of oil, gas, and coal combined', bg:'#bd9013', fg:'#ffffff', sub:'#f2e4c2'},\n      {big:'~1\/3', small:'Share of global clean energy investment led by a single country, China', bg:'#0c4569', fg:'#ffffff', sub:'#bdd6e6'}\n    ];\n    var wrap=document.getElementById('sisEnCards');\n\n    for(var i=0;i<cards.length;i++){\n      (function(c,idx){\n        var card=document.createElement('div');\n        card.style.cssText='flex:1 1 210px; min-width:0; box-sizing:border-box; background:'+c.bg+'; color:'+c.fg+'; border-radius:12px; padding:22px 20px; text-align:center; opacity:0; transform:translateY(16px); transition:opacity .5s ease '+(idx*0.1)+'s, transform .5s ease '+(idx*0.1)+'s, box-shadow .18s ease; cursor:default;';\n\n        var big=document.createElement('div');\n        big.textContent=c.big;\n        big.style.cssText='font-size:clamp(30px,5vw,44px); font-weight:800; line-height:1; margin-bottom:10px;';\n\n        var small=document.createElement('div');\n        small.textContent=c.small;\n        small.style.cssText='font-size:clamp(12px,1.4vw,14px); line-height:1.4; color:'+c.sub+';';\n\n        card.appendChild(big); card.appendChild(small);\n        wrap.appendChild(card);\n\n        card.addEventListener('mouseenter',function(){ card.style.boxShadow='0 8px 22px rgba(7,63,100,.22)'; card.style.transform='translateY(-3px)'; });\n        card.addEventListener('mouseleave',function(){ card.style.boxShadow='none'; card.style.transform='translateY(0)'; });\n\n        card.setAttribute('data-i',idx);\n      })(cards[i],i);\n    }\n\n    var els=wrap.querySelectorAll('[data-i]');\n    function reveal(){ for(var i=0;i<els.length;i++){ els[i].style.opacity='1'; els[i].style.transform='translateY(0)'; } }\n    if('IntersectionObserver' in window){\n      var io=new IntersectionObserver(function(en){ en.forEach(function(e){ if(e.isIntersecting){ reveal(); io.disconnect(); } }); },{threshold:0.2});\n      io.observe(wrap);\n    } else { reveal(); }\n  })();\n  <\/script>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"energy-storage-market-trends-and-the-duration-question\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Energy Storage Market Trends and the Duration Question<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The energy storage market has bifurcated. Short-duration lithium-ion is a commodity race led by CATL, BYD, LG Energy Solution, and Tesla. Long-duration storage, spanning flow batteries, compressed air, thermal, and gravity, is a strategic race where the winners are not yet decided. Market entry strategy for battery storage solutions has to specify which duration segment, which revenue stack, and which interconnection posture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ancillary services markets saturate faster than developers model. Frequency regulation revenues in ERCOT, PJM, and CAISO have compressed as storage megawatts stacked in. The projects earning durable returns layer capacity payments, energy arbitrage, and resource adequacy contracts. Standalone merchant pro formas have narrow windows before they need reunderwriting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-global-color-9-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-59fc5d98ffc1f029a5e8728657eeaee0 wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>SIS International's structured expert interviews with senior procurement, engineering, and regulatory leaders across utility, IPP, and industrial buyers indicate that sCO2 turbines and other emerging thermal-storage hybrids are gaining serious evaluation as gas peaker replacements in markets with firm capacity obligations. The buying committees are wider than for conventional gas turbines, and the evaluation cycles are longer.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"major-markets-for-energy\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Major Markets for Energy<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Three countries will do tremendous work in renewables over the next few years. The three are China, the USA, and India. China is the definite growth leader among the three. That country accounts for almost half of the total global clean energy mix. Meanwhile, renewable capacity will double in India over the next few years. India's electricity access has shown tremendous growth, especially in rural areas. In the late 2020s, the USA will export more oil than it imports. That country is finding cost-effective ways to unlock new resources. Those resources will raise their output.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"trends-in-energy-market-research\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Grid Modernization Consulting and the DER Integration Opportunity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Grid modernization consulting has moved from SCADA upgrades to distributed energy resource integration, advanced distribution management systems, and non-wires alternatives. Utilities that build a DER management system capability early are capturing the transition. They monetize hosting capacity, sell flexibility services, and defer feeder upgrades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The competitive landscape for supercritical CO2 turbines, small modular reactors, and long-duration storage will be shaped by three factors: interconnection queue reform, capacity market design, and industrial decarbonization mandates. Vendors positioning across all three, rather than optimizing for one, are winning early anchor deployments with utilities including Dominion, Southern Company, and E.ON.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Four-Signal Framework for Energy Investment Decisions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Signal<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">What It Reveals<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Primary Research Input<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Offtaker willingness<\/td><td>Depth and price of demand for firm, clean, or hourly-matched product<\/td><td>B2B expert interviews with procurement and sustainability leads<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Interconnection posture<\/td><td>Realistic COD and cost adders for queue position<\/td><td>Regulatory intelligence and ISO\/RTO stakeholder mapping<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Technology substitution<\/td><td>Pace at which incumbent assets get displaced or repowered<\/td><td>OEM roadmap interviews and installed base analytics<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Community acceptance<\/td><td>Siting, permitting, and tax negotiation friction<\/td><td>Ethnographic research and local stakeholder interviews<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"trends-in-energy-market-research\"><em>Source: SIS International Research<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"leading-players-in-the-energy-sector\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Leading Players in the Energy Sector<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"gb-block-image gb-block-image-bd83f738\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1456\" height=\"816\" class=\"gb-image gb-image-bd83f738\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sisinternational.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Asia-Energy-8.jpg\" alt=\"SIS International Market Research &amp; Strategy\" title=\"Asia Energy (8)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sisinternational.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Asia-Energy-8.jpg 1456w, https:\/\/www.sisinternational.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Asia-Energy-8-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sisinternational.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Asia-Energy-8-1024x574.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sisinternational.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Asia-Energy-8-768x430.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sisinternational.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Asia-Energy-8-18x10.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1456px) 100vw, 1456px\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Several leading players wield significant influence and drive innovation in the highly dynamic energy sector. These companies span various segments of the industry and play pivotal roles in shaping the energy landscape:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>\u2022 ExxonMobil:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> As one of the largest publicly traded international oil and gas companies, ExxonMobil operates across the entire energy value chain, from exploration and production to refining and marketing. With a global presence and extensive reserves, ExxonMobil is a key player in the oil and gas industry and is known for its technological expertise and operational excellence.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>\u2022 Royal Dutch Shell:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Royal Dutch Shell, commonly known as Shell, is another major player in the oil and gas industry. Its operations span upstream exploration and production, downstream refining and marketing, and integrated gas activities. Shell is also actively investing in renewable energy, electric vehicle charging infrastructure, and low-carbon technologies, positioning itself as a leader in the energy transition.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>\u2022 NextEra Energy:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> NextEra Energy is a leading clean energy company and North America's largest renewable energy generator. Through its subsidiaries, including Florida Power &amp; Light Company (FPL) and NextEra Energy Resources, the company operates wind, solar, nuclear, and natural gas power plants and energy storage projects. Through its investments in renewable energy and grid modernization, NextEra Energy is driving the transition to a low-carbon future.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>\u2022 Enel:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Enel is a global energy company and one of the largest integrated utilities in the world, operating across multiple continents. The company is a leader in renewable energy, with a significant portfolio of wind, solar, hydroelectric, and geothermal assets. Enel also invests in grid modernization, energy storage, and digitalization initiatives to enhance grid reliability and support the transition to clean energy.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>\u2022 Tesla:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Tesla, led by visionary entrepreneur Elon Musk, is a pioneer in electric vehicles (EVs), energy storage, and solar energy solutions. The company manufactures electric cars, batteries, and solar panels to accelerate the world's transition to sustainable energy. Tesla's innovative products, including the Tesla Powerwall and Powerpack, drive the adoption of renewable energy and decentralize the energy grid.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"expected-results-from-sis-internationals-energy-market-research\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Utility Business Model Transformation and the Platform Opportunity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Utility business model transformation is real where regulators allow performance-based ratemaking, shared-savings mechanisms, and platform revenue. New York's REV proceeding, the UK's RIIO framework, and California's demand flexibility rulemaking have created openings for utilities to earn on outcomes, not just rate base. The utilities capturing this, including National Grid, Xcel, and Iberdrola, are running structured VOC programs with commercial and industrial customers to design tariffs the market will actually adopt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The future of demand response program design is behavioral, automated, and integrated with DER portfolios. Static peak-shaving programs are being replaced by dynamic dispatch across residential batteries, smart thermostats, EV chargers, and industrial loads. The market research that supports this is granular customer segmentation, not aggregate load studies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote has-global-color-9-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-1c59d4eb029b724be4d8770d8e9ac8f4 is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>SIS International's proprietary research across European and North American energy corridors indicates that OEMs and utilities who commission competitive intelligence on regulatory roadmaps, alongside technical benchmarking, secure first-mover advantage in emerging categories such as sCO2 turbines and long-duration storage.

Analyzing data from diverse sources, including sensors, grids, and consumer behavior, requires sophisticated tools and expertise.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>\u2022 Regulatory Hurdles: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The energy sector is highly regulated, and policies can change rapidly. Navigating these regulatory frameworks while conducting energy market research can be challenging.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>\u2022 Interdisciplinary Expertise: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Energy market dynamics encompass technology, economics, and policy. Businesses may struggle to find experts who deeply understand these multidisciplinary aspects.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>\u2022 Market Volatility: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Energy markets are notoriously volatile. External factors such as geopolitical events or natural disasters can disrupt research findings and impact decision-making. Energy markets are influenced by geopolitical tensions and conflicts, which can introduce significant uncertainties in energy market research.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>\u2022 Sustainability Challenges: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Companies conducting research in the energy sector face increasing pressure to align with sustainability goals. Balancing profitability with environmental responsibility is challenging.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"industry-attractiveness-porters-five-forces-analysis-of-the-energy-market\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Industry Attractiveness: Porter's Five Forces Analysis of the Energy Market<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Porter's Five Forces framework provides a systematic approach to assessing the attractiveness and competitiveness of an industry. When applied to the energy market, the following factors come into play:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><b>Threat of New Entrants:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The energy market is characterized by high barriers to entry due to significant capital requirements, regulatory complexities, and economies of scale. Existing players benefit from established infrastructure, long-term contracts, and resource access, making it challenging for new entrants to penetrate the market.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><b>Bargaining Power of Suppliers:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> In the energy sector, suppliers of raw materials, equipment, and technology wield considerable bargaining power, particularly in segments such as oil and gas exploration and production. Large suppliers, such as oilfield service companies and equipment manufacturers, may have leverage over energy companies, influencing pricing, terms, and supply availability.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><b>Bargaining Power of Buyers:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Energy buyers, including utilities, industrial consumers, and residential customers, exert varying degrees of bargaining power depending on market conditions and regulatory frameworks. Utilities may have limited bargaining power in regulated markets due to government oversight and rate-setting mechanisms.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><b>Threat of Substitute Products:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The energy market faces a growing threat from substitute products and technologies, particularly in the renewable energy sector. Solar, wind, and other renewable energy sources offer cleaner, more sustainable alternatives to fossil fuels, challenging the dominance of traditional energy sources. Additionally, advances in energy storage, electric vehicles, and energy efficiency technologies further accelerate the adoption of substitutes, reshaping the competitive landscape of the energy market.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><b>Intensity of Competitive Rivalry:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Competitive rivalry is high in the energy market, driven by price competition, market consolidation, and technological innovation. Established players compete for market share, investment opportunities, and resource access, leading to mergers, acquisitions, and strategic partnerships. Furthermore, regulatory changes, geopolitical tensions, and market volatility contribute to the intense competition, requiring companies to differentiate their offerings and adapt to changing market conditions.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html lang=\"en\">\n<head>\n    \n    \n    <title>AI Blog Banner<\/title>\n    <style>\n

best programs share four traits. They combine secondary market sizing with primary B2B expert interviews across the full buying committee. They run competitive intelligence continuously, not episodically. They pair quantitative surveys with ethnographic work at industrial sites and control rooms. They tie every research question to a specific capital allocation decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SIS International Research has run energy market research engagements across North America, Brazil, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia for OEMs, utilities, IPPs, and investors, using market entry assessments, competitive intelligence, and structured expert interview programs. The through-line across four decades of work is that the operators who invest in primary evidence before capital commitment consistently outperform those who reverse the sequence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Energy market research is now a strategic function, not a support function. The leadership teams that treat it that way are building the pipelines, partnerships, and platforms that will define the next generation of energy infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"how-sis-internationals-energy-market-research-helps-businesses\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>How SIS International\u2019s Energy Market Research Helps Businesses<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SIS International offers comprehensive energy market research and consulting services to help businesses navigate the complexities of the energy sector and achieve their strategic objectives.

It matters because traditional load and price forecasts no longer capture demand shifts, technology substitution, or offtaker behavior.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1785299097083\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">How should companies assess investment risk in renewable energy projects?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Stress-test basis risk, shape risk, and counterparty concentration together, and model the merchant tail beyond the PPA term. Single-tenant hyperscaler contracts require the same scrutiny as multi-buyer structures because concentration risk compounds over asset life.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1785299098368\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">What is driving demand for supercritical CO2 turbines and long-duration storage?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Firm capacity obligations, industrial decarbonization mandates, and gas peaker retirements are creating buyer interest in sCO2 turbines and long-duration storage as clean, dispatchable alternatives. Buying committees are wider and evaluation cycles longer than for conventional thermal assets.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1785299099845\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">How is demand response program design evolving?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Static peak-shaving programs are giving way to dynamic dispatch across residential batteries, EV chargers, smart thermostats, and industrial loads. The design work now depends on granular customer segmentation rather than aggregate load studies.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1785299102611\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">What separates leading energy market research programs from average ones?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Leaders combine secondary sizing with primary B2B expert interviews across the full buying committee, run competitive intelligence continuously, and tie every research question to a specific capital decision. Followers commission research after the decision is already made.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<h2>Our Facility Location in New York<\/h2>\n<p><!-- \/wp:post-content --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:html --> <iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/embed?pb=!1m18!1m12!1m3!1d3022.976188376966!2d-73.99130312499956!3d40.740549471389315!2m3!1f0!2f0!3f0!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!3m3!1m2!1s0x89c259a15798c731%3A0xd695d09bdd495f25!2s11%20E%2022nd%20St%20FL%202%2C%20New%20York%2C%20NY%2010010%2C%20USA!5e0!3m2!1sen!2spe!4v1726171763526!5m2!1sen!2spe\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe> <!-- \/wp:html --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">11 E 22nd Street, Floor 2, New York, NY 10010\u00a0 T: +1(212) 505-6805<\/h3>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>About SIS International<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sisinternational.com\/\">SIS International<\/a> offers Quantitative, Qualitative, and Strategy Research.
