Course Background
This program equips managers, executives, specialists, and government officials with knowledge of climate science, global energy demand projections through 2050, and low-carbon strategies across energy supply, demand, and carbon capture. Participants will gain insights to contribute effectively to net-zero commitments and prepare rational plans for their organizations or governments.
Course Objectives
Understand the science and impacts of global warming.Analyze global energy demand growth projections through 2050.Identify and evaluate low carbon strategies in energy demand, supply, and carbon capture.Comprehend stakeholder roles (government, corporations, energy suppliers) in stimulating energy transition.Develop frameworks to prepare actionable plans for reducing carbon footprint.What You Will Learn
Scientific drivers of global warming.Extent of energy demand growth through 2050.Low-carbon strategies in energy demand, supply, and carbon capture.Stakeholder strategies to stimulate action toward net-zero.Analysis of energy projections leading to a low-carbon future.Training Modules
