Course Introduction
Energy transition refers to the global energy sector’s shift from fossil-based systems of energy production and consumption — including oil, natural gas and coal — to renewable energy sources like wind and solar, as well as lithium-ion batteries. The increasing penetration of renewable energy into the energy supply mix, the onset of electrification and improvements in energy storage are all key drivers of the energy transition.
As more investors and companies seek greater clarity and confidence in accounting for long-term climate risks and opportunities, businesses are adapting to the “energy transition” — a transformation of the global energy sector from fossil-based systems of energy production and consumption to renewable energy sources. Switching from nonrenewable energy sources like oil, natural gas, and coal to renewable energy is made possible by technological advancements and a societal push toward sustainability. Spurred by structural, permanent changes to energy supply, demand, and prices, the energy transition also aims to reduce energy-related greenhouse gas emissions through various forms of decarbonization.
This capacity building programme on clean energy technologies and energy transition is designed to equip participants with national and global business opportunities in the clean energy technologies. Participants will also learn the justifications and rationales to align with the paradigm shift from dirty energy to clean energy technologies as well as techniques to ensure smooth, profitable and sustainable energy transition.
At the end of the module, participants should be able to:
- Gain a clear understanding and application of clean energy technologies.
- Understand the social, economic, political and environmental justifications for the global push for an energy transition from fossil fuels to clean energy technologies.
- Adopt clean energy technologies as veritable tools for climate change solutions.
- Get familiarized with the contemporary and future trends in the adoption and application of clean energy technologies among the global economies.
- assess and compare technological efficacy of the alternative sources of clean energy.
