Inhalte (short description): |
---|
The
module introduces students to the European Union‘s transition process towards
becoming the first climate neutral continent by 2050. It is divided into two
parts of roughly equal weight in terms of lecture time. The first part, covered
in the first half of the lecture period, provides background information on
climate change and the European Union institutional framework, explains basic
environmental economic issues and concepts, outlines the European Union's
environmental status and its strategy towards Net Zero emissions (in particular
the European Green Deal, FitFor55, RePower EU). The second part, covered in the
second half of the lecture period, focusses on selected aspects (e.g. energy
market, emissions trading, carbon border adjustment mechanism, fiscal and
financial aspects). The lecture is accompanied by an exercise which sets in
after about two weeks lecture time. The exercise provides and discusses
questions sets related to the lecture. It also gives room for individual
questions. The lecture as well as the exercise take place weekly (2 hrs lecture
per week and 1 hr exercise per week, respectively). The module examination
consists of two online homeworks (question portfolios), which are due around
mid of the lecture period, and a written exam which will take place at the end
of the lecture period. All dates, resources, and other organizational issues
will be outlined in the first week of the lecture period.
