Sustainable Energy and Low Carbon Energy Training Courses > Decarbonization – Policy and Readiness

About this training course

This course will assist energy industry professionals in the planning and operation of a power system with increasing penetration of renewable energy resources, storage and electrical vehicles to support decarbonization targets.

Over the last few decades, utilities have been active in leveraging clean-energy resources to develop and integrate technologies for the decarbonization of the power system and extending this support to the transportation sector.

The course addresses carbon targets and GHG (Greenhouse gases) control mechanisms that countries apply towards achieving a Sustainable, Resilient and Equitable Climate Future.

This course presents the innovations in electric vehicle technologies, such increased vehicle electrification (batteries and fuel cells), connectivity and automation. The course also illustrates how maximizing future use of renewable resources will facilitate time and sector shifting, a process encompassing storing renewable energy through hydrogen production, liquid fuels, and chemicals (to be used in long-term storage) and optimally integrating transportation with buildings, the grid, and renewables in order to realize system-wide benefits.

This course will give a unique perspective that will help energy professionals achieve a holistic understanding of power systems that operate within a zero carbon paradigm.

After the completion of this training course, participants will be able to:

  • Understand how local governments and stakeholders are developing short-term strategies and long-term pathways towards deep decarbonization
  • Gain insights into the approach taken by countries to achieve zero carbon emissions
  • Understand the technologies that can support a zero carbon future
  • Assess the many pathways towards reducing carbon emissions with the adoption of electrical vehicles, renewables, microgrids and smart cities
  • Understand how we can operate a 100% renewable system and learn from case studies such as the “Los Angeles 100% Renewable Energy Case Study

This training course will be applicable and of interest to following organizations and professionals:

  • Energy industry regulators & government organizations, power utilities, electrical transmission and distribution and renewable energy companies interested in decarbonization policies and carbon reduction pathways.
  • Professionals responsible for energy transition and decarbonization initiatives and planning, from technical and non-technical work areas can attend this course.

The course will provide an interdisciplinary approach to the following areas:

  • Achieving carbon neutrality
  • Measuring greenhouse gases (GHG) and the impact on our planet
  • Integration of electric vehicles and cross sectoral decarbonization
  • Carbon trading, cap and trade schema, renewable energy certificates
  • Cybersecurity and blockchain in renewable certificates
  • Carbon product footprint
  • Smart City with deep decarbonization
