ENRGYENV625E

The energy industry is one of the world's largest and fastest-growing industries. Emerging markets are building out infrastructures to meet rising energy needs, while developed markets are adapting their systems to balance reliability, cost, and environmental considerations. In this course, we will apply economics, finance, and strategy tools to understand energy markets, with a focus on electricity in the United States. Through readings, case studies and simulations, we will consider the dynamics of supply and demand, industry structure, technology, and prices; explore how value is created and how risks are managed. We will also examine the role of public policy and regulation in shaping energy markets. This class is designed to meet the learning needs of students with experience in the energy industry, but also to provide a valuable introduction to energy markets and issues for non-specialists. This course is for Global Executive MBA and Weekend Executive MBA students.
