<p class="MsoNormal">Undergraduate version of IDS.521. Reviews the contributions of energy systems to global greenhouse gas emissions, and the levers for reducing those emissions. Lectures and projects focus on evaluating energy systems against climate policy
goals, using performance metrics such as cost, carbon intensity, and others. Student projects explore pathways for realizing emissions reduction scenarios. Projects address the climate change mitigation potential of energy technologies (hardware and software),
technological and behavioral change trajectories, and technology and policy portfolios. Meets with IDS.521. Students taking the graduate version complete additional assignments and explore the subject in greater depth.<span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
