Course description
Currently, energy planning consideration was changed from single criteria approach with economic focus to a multi-criteria approach by including criteria from social and environmental. Although scholars have recently studied and utilized several Multi-Criteria Decision-Making methods to justify the best suitable energy planning out of those criteria, there are still gaps and concerns that are yet unanswered.
This training course will help the public and private sectors leverage global best practices on long-term energy portfolio planning, resource management, climate change mitigation strategies, environmental sustainability, and social impact. The entire cycle of energy planning toward a sustainable future starting with envisioning a sustainable energy future, to reconciling differing (and often conflicting) stakeholder perspectives, to analyzing the costs and benefits of various energy plan options, to selling those plans to decision-makers,
