Training Course Overview

The global transition to a sustainable energy future is already in progress. Renewable energy sources are growing rapidly, information technologies are revolutionizing electricity trading and management, and competitive electricity markets are driving significant changes in energy generation options. These rapid advancements present a wealth of opportunities for companies and individuals who understand the underlying forces behind these shifts, anticipate the future of energy markets, and create innovative solutions to meet energy demands. Conversely, those who fail to adapt will fall behind.

Success in this rapidly changing environment requires a solid grasp of energy fundamentals, technologies, and markets, along with the ability to apply this knowledge to identify new business opportunities. This Renewable Energy and Sustainability training course provides you with the essential knowledge and skills to succeed. By the end of the course, you will understand “why” the energy system is evolving, “where” it is headed, “what” it means for your career and organization, and “how” to effectively navigate the ongoing transition to a sustainable energy future.

This training course will feature:

  • The concept of sustainability and increase awareness of the different sustainability indicators
  • The challenges imposed by climate change and natural resource reserves
  • The concept of energy, energy conversion, and energy efficiency
  • A range of renewable energy technologies and develop an understanding of how these technologies can be used to improve the sustainability of electrical power systems
  • Challenges involved in balancing between energy security (ability to meet demand), energy equity (affordability) and environmental sustainability in the design of an energy infrastructure for a community

Training Course Objectives

By the end of this training course, participants will be able to:

  • Understand the factors driving changes in the energy Sources and their implications for you and your organization
  • Analyze renewable energy sources, energy efficiency measures, and electrification methods using quantitative metrics
  • Explain how advancements in information technology are reshaping the electricity sector
  • Analyze how strategies like auctions and energy targets can be utilized effectively
  • Assess and interpret emerging trends and forecasts to gain insights into the future of the energy sector
  • Predict potential opportunities in the energy market and understand how to capitalize on them

Designed for
