| Omschrijving | The energy industry has changed, is changing, and must continue to change, in order to become more sustainable. The transition, however, presents faces a number of challenges, such as: (1) social challenges, for example, in terms of social resistance to the change; (2) business challenges, for example, as both emergent green technologies and polluter incumbents look for ways in which to become financially sustainable in the new environment; (3) policy challenges, for example, as governments look for ways in which to incentivise the transition; and (4) marketing challenges, for example, as once niche ideas about sustainability and environmental protection, are mainstreamed. In this course we will explore each of these challenges, we will reflect upon the business opportunities that each creates, and will consider the supporting role of competition and markets. In the process, students will gain knowledge about the challenges and opportunities presented by the transition. | ||||||||
