This training will enable participants to better understand the evolution of the energy mix and the pros and cons of various alternative energies. An overview of the main regulatory and fiscal mechanisms introduced, as well as the evolution of green finance, complete this curriculum in order to address the issue of energy transition from a technical, economic and societal perspective.
Public :
Private sector personnel responsible for strategic planning, market analysis (regulation mechanisms and price creation), energy procurement, financing and management of energy projects to anticipate technical constraints, to understand the risks (economic, legal, technical, environmental, geopolitical)
State organisation in charge of energy policy choices, subsidies and/or promotion, as well as those in charge of missions within administrations and local authorities
Level :Knowledge
Prerequisite :
Have a basic knowledge of energy.
