ENGT 2803 - Introduction to Renewable Energy Entrepreneurship

Credits: 3

The course is primarily based on case studies and business planning. There are two broad themes to the class. In the first part we focus on the process of creating entrepreneurial companies. We will examine business issues of identifying opportunities in energy and environment, implementing strategies, and formulating and implementing the business plans. In the second part, we focus more specifically on the challenges of raising funds, dealing with investors and exploring issues in renewable (solar) energy and environment. We will occasionally change our perspective then, looking at the process from an investor’s perspective.
