Skills to practise
- Quantitative analysis
- Understanding energy systems
- Research and explaining assumptions
Examples of learning routes
The study routes are examples, not admission requirements or a job guarantee. Check school-subject prerequisites, teaching language and recognition of the qualification in your intended work country. For regulated professions, verify training, registration and licensing with the relevant local authority before choosing a programme; university admission does not automatically establish eligibility to practise.
- Engineering, energy studies, economics or environmental science, depending on the role
- Specialist study and analytical energy projects that build on core knowledge
Try a small task
Create a fictional school-building energy model and compare two efficiency scenarios, listing missing data and assumptions.
Before deciding
Distinguish financial analysis, engineering design and policy research. Results depend on local conditions, and the job title alone does not explain the work.
