Energy-consulting firms are having to adjust to a drop in business because of dissatisfaction among their customers with the recommendations they have made and the fact that companies have developed better in-house expertise. Some consulting firms are going out of business, while others are restructuring and shifting their emphasis from energy management to equipment replacement. Consultants also blame user indifference to energy matters because of the current fuel prices, but users cite their own financial problems and in-place conservation programs as reasons for turning away from the consultants.
