Energy Training

As the aftermath of the international financial and economic crisis wanes, and the world begins to recover, the energy world has embarked on a new chapter. From a situation involving ‘undersupply’ during the early to mid-2000s, last year has ended with comparative oversupply in the oil and gas markets. Simultaneously, the debate over the necessity of a change in the world’s overall energy mix towards a more sustainable one, continues to be held. In combination with the changing geopolitical spectrum, this all holds profound implications for EU energy policy.

To gain a better understanding of the complexities involved in this regard, and specifically with respect to national and EU-policy, international politics and market developments in energy, the Clingendael International Energy Programme has designed a new series of one-day Energy Courses. Drawing on CIEP's vast experience in lecturing and customised training CIEP now offers its own energy curriculum consisting of one-day modules covering a range of energy and energy-related subjects. The curriculum consists of stand-alone, open enrolment modules enabling participants to pick and choose à la carte, from one single module to a composition of a training programme best suited to their own needs and interests.

Participants in CIEP Energy Training will
  • Gain knowledge on the public and private, national and international, political and economic context of the energy sector;
  • Be offered insight into the dynamics and interdependencies in the energy sector and the policymaking on the subject;
  • Be stimulated to develop an analytical framework based on which they are better equipped to place recent developments in perspective and gather and interpret relevant information.
Subjects covered include
  • Energy demand and supply
  • Energy and geopolitics
  • Energy and security
  • Regulation of energy markets in the EU
  • Energy and transition
  • Energy and climate policy
  • Geopolitical underpinnings of energy markets
Dates and Venue

Two modules are planned for 2011 at Huys Clingendael.
