INTRODUCTION

Energy systems are central to economic growth, industrial competitiveness, social welfare, and national security. As global energy markets evolve, professionals must understand the economic forces and policy choices that shape energy production, pricing, investment, and consumption. This course introduces participants to the foundations of energy economics and the practical tools used to analyze energy markets and policy outcomes. It examines how governments, regulators, investors, and companies respond to market uncertainty, resource constraints, environmental pressures, and technological disruption. The program connects economic theory with real-world energy policy challenges, including energy subsidies, market reform, renewable integration, carbon pricing, and energy security. Participants will learn how to interpret supply and demand trends, assess energy infrastructure decisions, and evaluate the financial and social impacts of policy interventions. The course also addresses the growing importance of energy transition and the balance between affordability, reliability, and sustainability. It is designed for professionals who need clear, practical, and strategic insight into the future of energy markets. The learning experience combines strategic analysis, applied frameworks, and policy-focused thinking suitable for international energy environments.
