In recent years, the transition towards sustainable energy systems has gathered huge momentum. Yet, despite the substantial progress being made in renewable generation, the transition to greener more sustainable energy continues to pose significant technological, commercial and political challenges for businesses and governments.
Energy transition engineers, as well as policy-makers, are faced with the challenge of redesigning our entire energy infrastructure while ensuring continued access to reliable and affordable energy at times of rapid and substantial swings in supply or demand.
This programme is designed to address this challenge by combining a detailed knowledge of the technical and commercial aspects of Low Carbon Technologies with a broader systems-thinking approach to understanding the complex and interconnected nature of multi-energy systems.
