Intended learning outcomes
The overall aim of the course is that students will acquire knowledge about energy policies for improved energy efficiency and increased shares of renewables, and based on this knowledge obtain skills to critically analyze and evaluate policy instruments in the energy field. To meet the objective student are expected to obtain an understanding of the underlying principles of how a country in a market economy takes decisions about energy policies, identify the existing mix of energy policies, which today is in operation within the EU and in Sweden, and how they mutually influence each other, and student should be able to explain how energy policy decisions at national and EU level are taken. After the course the student will:
- describe and reflect on how decisions are made about energy policies
- describe the function of the existing energy and RES policies
- analyze and evaluate energy policies
- critically examine and evaluate scientific publications concerning energy policies
- communicate the results of their learning in the course areas, both orally and in written form
Course content
During the course, students will, in different ways, practice their ability to critically examine and evaluate the existing energy policies. Different parts of the scientific energy policy discourse are presented. Participants read research reports, books and scientific papers, etc., and examines them critically. Participants will also be evaluating existing energy policies and write an essay in the subject of policy instruments in the energy field.
Teaching and working methods
The course consists of lectures, seminars, work in groups and individually, and reading of literature. Participation in seminars, exams, and assignments of the course project are mandatory.
