Energy Trading vs other commodities

Worked in PJM/ERCOT at a hedging shop the past few years and have a nagging feeling in my mind about pigeonholing myself.

To those in FTRs/CRRs, do you worry about skill transferability? There's only a few "good" congestion shops that model the entire grid. What else can you with this skillset?

For term trading - is this more transferable?
