Electric Power Projects and Power Purchasing

This course is designed for those in the energy industry who are involved in the planning and development of electricity supply and the purchase or sale of power. The course will begin with a review of challenges and solutions associated with the development of power generation and transmission assets with a particular focus on financing requirements. An understanding of development and financing issues is essential in order to implement successful power procurement mechanisms and in order to effectively negotiate power purchase agreements.

The course will evaluate these issues in the context of all types of generation technologies, including renewable energy projects. The second phase of the course will cover the range of procurement options for electricity supply including auctions, feed-in-tariffs and competitive requests for proposals.
