Managing New Power Markets and Regulation

22 November 2021 to 1 December 2021
 
The course is offered by the Power Futures Lab, at the University of Cape Town's Graduate School of Business, and is run in partnership with the African Forum of Utility Regulators and the Regional Electricity Regulators Association.


Led and facilitated by leading international lecturers from tier-one universities and regional industry experts, with 2½ hours of live lectures each day in the afternoon, this CPD accredited course empowers delegates to contribute to the reform of the power sector and deliver sustainable, affordable services to everyone.

The course exposes delegates to new frontiers of knowledge and skills in:

- Challenges facing the African power sector;
- Improving utility performance;
- Global and African developments in new power market reforms;
- Power systems of the future;
- Economic and technical regulation of monopoly components of the power sector;
- Accelerating investments in competitive elements of the sector - IPPs and auctions;
- Preparing for the future with the growth of variable renewable energy; and
- Distributed energy generation and the energy transition.

It is specifically suited for board members, executives, senior managers, professionals, consultants and advisors working in African regulatory authorities, government departments, power utilities, development finance institutions and the private sector.

Upon completion, participants should have gained knowledge and skills to adapt their energy sectors to the realities of the rapid energy transition and mechanisms to regulate it for impactful social-economic transformation.

This year's online course format will be facilitated through a series of live online lectures, pre-recorded videos, and selected readings, and is specifically structured to allow professionals to attend 2hr live lectures in the afternoons.

Group discounts for three or more participants from the same institution, as well as discounted rates for GSB alumni are available.
