Risk Management in the Energy Transition
Electrification and the energy transition are reshaping entire value chains. Assets once seen as secure, such as gas plants and diesel fleets, will rapidly lose value if ambitious mitigation policies are implemented. Even if policy momentum slows in some regions, the energy transition goes with an increased stranded asset risk. The Risk Management in the Energy Transition masterclass helps you see where value is shifting, identify stranded asset-risks, and develop strategies to protect and reallocate capital before disruption occurs.
