Does efficiency come at the expense of reliability?

Based on a Discussion Webinar,

Two major concerns exist about our electrical power system. The first one is the reliability and quality of the electrical power, summarized under the term ‘Power Quality’ (PQ). Poor PQ affects the profitability and the productivity of our economy. The second concern is the energy efficiency (EE) of the electrical system. Poor EE affects both the environment and the profitability of the economy.

But how do measures to improve PQ influence the efficiency, and vice versa? Are PQ and EE measures synergetic, or rather counter-productive?

Leonardo Energy addressed this subject on a Discussion Webinar on 15 February 2008. The following are a few of the major points arising from that discussion.
