Energy Economics

ECON 366 • Fall 2023

The goal of this course is to develop a deep understanding of energy markets, regulations, and technologies and to use economics tools from our 100- and 200-level classes to assess strategic behaviour, investment decisions, and regulatory issues in energy. The course will focus on sectors most relevant in Alberta. We will look at the oil sands and other upstream oil and gas production, upgrading, refining, and transportation by pipeline and rail for oil and as well as the production of liquefied natural gas (LNG). We will then look extensively at the electricity sector and finish with a study of GHG policies and their impacts on the energy sector.
