Course aims at providing students with understanding of key paradigms of global energy security. Students will be confronted with energy security questions, such as interaction between traditional producers and transit routes on one hand and emerging producers and new energy markets on the other hand. Changes in national and regional energy mixes, rise of renewable energy sources and future of nuclear energy will be tackled, as well as ongoing turmoil in some regions as a factor for global energy security. Students shall develop ability to assess the situation in particular regions based on provided facts. Where useful, students will be asked to solve a case study or to come forward with energy security scenarios.
