**Req ID**: 31930
**Faculty/Division**: Faculty of Arts & Science
**Department**: Munk Sch Global Affairs & Public Policy
**Campus**:St. George (Downtown Toronto)

**Course number and title: GLA2080H Topics in Innovation I**:Innovation & the Energy Transition**

**Course description**:
The shift from a fossil fuel-centric energy system to one based on renewables and low-carbon energy is fast-unfolding but still has a long way to go. While reducing carbon emissions and dependence on fossil fuels is the goal, there is a fierce geopolitical and industrial competition also at play, with every major economy trying to gain advantage in researching, designing and manufacturing technologies for the low-carbon economy. Because energy and national power are intimately linked, this course asks whether the transition to a ‘net-zero’ economy will become the latest site of geopolitical competition between the US and China; who (countries, regions and companies) will gain and who will lose from this transition, and what are the major obstacles standing in the way. This semester-long course will break down the major technologies that have grown in importance in recent years and the policies that supported their growth. It will also analyze the recent revival of big innovation policy, including America’s Inflation Reduction Act, China’s recent five-year plans and Europe’s REPowerEU plan. We also discuss ‘critical minerals’ and the incipient mining boom because these inputs are vital to these low-carbon technologies that will be needed in much greater quantities than today.
