Climate Risk Assessment in Energy

The course “Climate Risk Assessment in Energy” is an interdisciplinary discipline at the intersection of energy management, ecology, meteorology, and financial analysis. Today, this course is critically important for energy professionals, as climate change directly affects the stability of energy systems, from the drying up of rivers for hydroelectric power plants to storm damage to power lines.

The course aims to provide knowledge about the mechanisms of energy systems functioning under global climate change and methods for identifying vulnerabilities in critical infrastructure.

Particular attention is paid to quantitative risk assessment, modeling of extreme weather scenarios and development of adaptation strategies to ensure uninterrupted energy supply.

The course is focused on training specialists who are able to apply the theoretical foundations of climatology and systems analysis to analyze the sustainability of energy facilities, forecast economic losses from climate threats and justify investments in “green” modernization of the industry.
