About this module: Climate pressures, decarbonization, and regulatory change are fundamentally reshaping energy markets. This module explains the global drivers of the transition—geopolitical shifts, carbon pricing, ESG demands, and investor expectations. You will learn how to anticipate climate risks, adapt to major policy changes such as the EU Green Deal and U.S. Inflation Reduction Act, and align your organisation with net-zero targets. The focus is on resilience, transparency, and adaptability in an environment where energy strategy is business strategy.
