2 Mastering Renewable & Alterna ve Energies onal.com/renewable COURSE OVERVIEW The course is designed to provide clear, independent and business-focused guidance on market opportunity and risk to those deploying, inves ng in or regula ng renewable power projects. It is presented in language suited to non-engineering commercial execu ves and investors, so no prior knowledge is assumed or required. Presented throughout in an interac ve and market-focused way, the course connects the mul ple market environment factors that need to align in order that renewable power can scale up and integrate: from the business, system and policy environment to the project development processes, finances, risks and returns. Over 4 days, a endees will be led from the global picture and trends through to the variables impac ng the success (or failure) of individual projects and the integra on of large amounts of renewable energy into individual power markets. This market analysis approach recognises that the sustainable growth of any renewable power business requires the balancing of interconnected and poten ally conflic ng requirements, including reliable service, investor returns and public/poli cal acceptance. YOUR EXPERT COURSE DIRECTOR Dr John Massey, a respected energy business analyst & trainer with over 25 years commercial experience in industry research, analysis, intelligence and training. His business experience has spanned both the energy and telecoms/it industries, providing an informed perspec ve on how convergence of the two into a smarter system will bring major change to the way electricity is generated, distributed and consumed. By focusing on the interconnec on of mul ple business variables within energy and technology markets, he has helped senior business-people in over 25 countries across 5 con nents. They have represented a wide variety of organisa ons from start-ups to the world s biggest corpora ons. His integrated approach to market analysis highlights the requirement to understand disrup ve technology change within its wider context including regulatory environments and drivers, market structures, investment drivers and returns, socioeconomic issues & public acceptance. He has an outstanding academic background, including a 1st Class honours degree in Natural Sciences from the University of Cambridge and further Diplomas in Economics & Sustainability. His PhD is in Earth Sciences. WHO HAVE ATTENDED ABB Alstom Power BNP Paribas BP Canadian Solar Danish Energy Agency DBS Bank Dept.

Highly accomplished trainer with a broad knowledge and the right mix between slides and exercises. - Sanne Franicevic, Director, Crédit Agricole CIB This was one of my best spent weeks on training all year! A good and efficient way of ge ng an overview of the renewable energy sector. I found John very knowledgeable and enthusias c in presen ng the material, also enabling knowledge exchange between par cipants in the group. I really enjoyed his interes ng lessons and the group work he provided for addi onal learning outcome. Thanks John. - Hanne Marit Bjørk, Vice President, Statkra Development AS John represents a though ul and unbiased view in the realm of renewable energy. His insights are well reasoned, clear and, perhaps most importantly, backed up by hard numbers. Definitely a person I would turn to for guidance in this space. - Philippe Flamand, Investment Officer, responsability Investments AG Training Methodology The agenda will combine presented materials with plenty of opportunity for Q&A, interac ve discussions, and the use of quan ta ve models to illustrate key learning points.
