The Global Energy and Climate Policy course offers an introduction to the theoretical and practical understanding of how energy and climate change policies are designed, shaped, advocated and implemented. As energy markets go truly global, domestic energy policies are becoming more and more entangled with wider issues of international governance. Concurrently, the urgent need to mitigate and adapt to climate change and transition to a low-carbon future is adding a further layer of complexity.

授課大綱 - 您將從這門課程中學到什麼
The future of fossil fuels in a carbon-constrained world
This week introduces the concept of a carbon-constrained world, considering how it links to energy policies and the future of fossil fuels. It will also discuss the role of technologies such as carbon capture and storage (CCS) and how different stakeholders, in developed and developing countries, perceive the need to decarbonize energy systems.
The nuclear option: the solution to the energy/climate conundrum?
This week introduces the competing cases on economic, environmental and political aspects of nuclear power as part of the global energy mix and its role in meeting both energy security and climate change mitigation needs.
Up-scaling renewable energy: policy incentives
This week discusses the growing role of renewable energy sources such as wind and solar. It introduces the range of fiscal and other policy tools that governments’ use to promote an increase in the production and consumption of renewable energy.
Energy and climate governance: two become one?
This week addresses how energy and climate governance are becoming more inter-related. Climate change is a global collective action problem whereas energy is more often associated with state based priorities. However, emissions from fossil fuel energy have global impacts and pose a challenge to the international community at-large.

來自GLOBAL ENERGY AND CLIMATE POLICY的熱門評論
It is beneficial to upgrade society on usage of more renewable energy and set the policy and guidelines to minimise the supply of fossil fuel
An excellent corse which is very well designed to educate a person with current scenario and responsibilities towards global energy and climate policy so as to enable formation of public policies.
Excellent course. The option to write a short essay on each week's topic and review the submisions of other course participants makes one think hard about the topic. thanks.
Extremely informative, gets you deep into issues around climate policy. Changed my mind on nuclear, made me realise the challenges of a traditional energy market, and a whole lot in between.
