Energy Production Analysis

Catalog description

Section information text: Energy is a primary enabler of business operations. Energy sources include nuclear power, fossil fuels, oil, natural gas, solar, wind, and flowing water (hydro). Energy is used in business to power machinery, heat factories, and propel vehicles to deliver goods and services. Independent scholars will analyze regional, national, and international energy production issues from a business leadership perspective. Issues include environmental regulations, legal requirements, and social conditions (e.g., building a production facility in a neighborhood). The conceptual analysis of managing emerging new energy sources is explored.
