  3. Energy is a vital need in our societies. Over the centuries, the transition from human or animal labour to coal and hydrocarbons has enabled the industrial revolutions of the 19th and 20th centuries. But these fossil fuels have a high environmental cost and new alternatives have emerged. These different energy sources all have advantages and disadvantages... which must be weighed and compared according to the specificities of each territory.

    This summer school aims to draw up an overview of the issues facing the various stakeholders: engineers and scientists, financiers, public authorities, citizens, energy companies, whether multinationals or local companies... The context is not simple, as the constraints are numerous and sometimes contradictory, but it is exciting and full of opportunities as a new world of energy takes shape!

    Language of instruction: French
