Resource Description

EME 801 provides a broad introduction to global markets for crude oil and refined petroleum products, natural gas, and electric power. A major goal of the course is to help students understand how market design, market institutions, and regulatory structures affect firm-level decision-making in the energy industries and ultimately, how these decisions affect the functioning of energy markets and the prospects for alternative technologies. Students also learn the fundamentals of project finance and how to manage risks associated with policy changes, as well as risks associated with changes to the national, local, and global energy markets.
