Sustainable Energy at CEEP

A transformation of the world’s energy systems is underway, with the current architecture not likely to last more than a few decades into the new century. Existing reliance on fossil and nuclear fuels is giving way to an emerging solar economy and society as renewable energy sources record the fastest growth rates in meeting global energy service needs.

Students can pursue an interest in energy issues through individual and team-based research projects related to CEEP’s internationally recognized programs in renewable energy, energy conservation and efficiency, distributed resource planning, climate-sensitive energy policy and energy justice. Also available is a large menu of courses addressing a full range of energy challenges from policy designs for energy sustainability to international dimensions of energy-environment-society relations, with specialty courses in electricity policy and planning, renewable energy technology, energy economics, energy and sustainable development, and political economy of energy (among others). Graduate offerings on the above subjects, both as lecture courses and tutorials, are available in all four degree programs.
