The Energy Resilience in Cities course explores the role of energy systems in building resilient, inclusive cities. Through three modules, learners gain the knowledge to address challenges and unlock practical tools, such as the City Energy Resilience Framework (CERF), to enhance energy access and preparedness.
MODULE 1
Introduction to Energy Resilience
This foundational module introduces the concept of energy resilience in urban contexts. Learners explore the critical risks to energy systems and how decentralized solutions, such as renewables, can enhance city resilience.
MODULE 2
City Energy Resilience Framework (CERF)
This module introduces CERF—a tool for evaluating and enhancing city energy resilience. Learn to facilitate multi-stakeholder workshops and use the framework in real-life scenarios.
MODULE 3
Equitable Access to Energy
Go beyond basic connections. This module unpacks dimensions of energy access—like affordability and informality—and shows how frameworks like CERF and MTF support inclusive planning.
