The Energy Value Chain
ECON 40606A
The energy sector is complex: different sources of energy are available, measured in different units, with very varied modes of transformation and transport. Each consumption sector has also its own characteristics. In addition, the environmental impacts of these energy sources, in particular greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, varies greatly from one energy to another. This course covers this complexity by presenting the different segments of the energy sector, one at a time, from sources of production to consumption sectors.
Themes covered
Energy production reserves and potentials
Dynamics of the coal oil natural gas nuclear and renewable energy markets
Transformation of primary energy into marketable energy products
Transport of energy
Dynamics of the consumer sectors: residential commercial industrial
