Learn MoreGreen Energy Finance Specialist (GEFS) provides a comprehensive overview of the financing of renewable energy (RE) and energy efficiency projects (EE), particularly from the bank’s perspective. This program prepares participants to lead and implement crucial processes in the green energy financial sector, including term sheet preparation and development as well as using financial models and tools to assess renewable energy projects. It combines a 20-week online phase with an additional three-day in-person seminar in mid-March 2023. Participants can choose to attend the three-day seminar either in-person in Berlin, Germany or virtually from anywhere in the world.
To supplement the learning experience, participants will have access to short introductory courses on energy and electricity topics. These courses are not mandatory and will not be covered in the exam.
Duration: 20-week online training phase, combined with a three-day seminar (virtual / in person)
Study time: About 220 hours
Start dates: Seminars are scheduled to take place twice a year on the first week of March and on the first week of September.
Price: USD $3,519 Vat Inclusive (early bird pricing)
This online training explains the most important economic aspects of renewable energy project planning. It describes the methodologies of different support mechanisms and conveys knowledge of legal and regulatory frameworks. Participants will learn which parameters are used to assess the bankability of renewable energy projects, and understand a banker’s view on risks related to PV, wind and biogas projects. The course includes a checklist for the project developer to ensure that all data that the bank requires is ordered and complete. The elective course allows insights in the planning process for a medium to large-scale biogas plant – from the earliest stages to implementation.

Electrical energy stands out in importance due to the many applications that it has and the many more that are currently being developed for it. This growing demand means that larger quantities of electrical power must be produced, and this must be done in a sustainable and low carbon-intensity manner. As such, renewable sources of electrical energy, harnessing resources such as solar energy or the wind, are gaining in importance within the electrical energy mix. Given how these are produced, an important part of these are known as variable renewable energy (VRE).
Power generation based on VRE poses new challenges to power grids. Some of these challenges can be addressed by adapting power systems’ flexibility to the increasingly variable power generation output from VRE sources.

A large part of the power sector has already been digitalised. The more that generation shifts from centralised thermal systems to decentralized, renewable systems, the greater the potential for applying modern digital tools in system control. Digitalisation is the key technology that makes it possible to organise decentralised networks and thus contribute to decarbonisation while maintaining a high level of security of supply.
In this course, you will learn why digitalisation is a key driver for building the sustainable power systems of the future and how it can contribute to decarbonisation.

This course examines the rationale used for sizing battery storage systems (BESS) for grid ancillary services in order to solve power quality problems. It gives an overview of the motivation, methods, and best practices for the early steps followed to determine the suitability of a BESS for a given ancillary service. As such, it provides one of the many tools that are used to evaluate and optimise the use and location of BESS.
