I am pleased to announce that I have successfully completed the course "Energy Economics, environment and Policy." This course offered a comprehensive exploration of critical issues facing the fossil fuel and renewable energy sectors today.
Throughout the course, I gained valuable insights into:
1. Energy Pricing: I analyzed the determinants of energy supply and demand, understood key monetary policies affecting energy prices, and examined current trends in the global energy market.
2. Macroeconomic Impacts: I explored the relationship between energy prices and economic growth in major economies, such as Japan, China, and the United States, and assessed how fluctuations in energy prices impact overall economic conditions.
3. Energy Security: I learned about the definition and importance of energy security, utilizing the “4-A” framework. A case study on Central Asian countries provided practical insights into assessing energy security and its policy implications.
4. Financing Renewable Energy: I investigated the challenges associated with developing low-carbon projects and the enabling conditions for green finance, culminating in a case study on waste-to-energy projects that highlighted leverage, transparency, and measurable results.
This course has equipped me with a robust understanding of energy economics, enhancing my ability to analyze policy options for fostering renewable energy development, promoting environmental sustainability, and driving green growth.
I look forward to applying these insights in my professional journey and contributing to the ongoing discussions around energy policy and sustainability.
