Description: This course gives students the opportunity to apply their knowledge, skills, and experience to explore one of the many opportunities or challenges in the Energy Transition. The Energy Transition is the shift in energy supply mix to meet growing energy consumption while avoiding negative environmental impact. For example, energy security, economic competitiveness and environmental responsibility are important considerations in the decarbonization of the electric grid, transportation, industrial, and building sectors and the increasing reliance on renewable energy sources. In addition, the integration of oil, natural gas and renewable power generation and consumption will leverage information and communication technologies, artificial intelligence, and advance modeling and simulation techniques to accelerate implementation. Students work in 2-, 3- or 4-member teams on an energy topic of interest. Students seek advice and mentorship from outside experts as they consider the impact of actions, investment and policy on relevant NGO, government, industry, consulting, or investment organizations.
