ESCP Business School is well known for its unique historical status and powerful international network. But what makes the energy programmes extra special is the input from those who have held, and those who still hold, senior posts in the energy policy and management fields. There is nothing like building on the insights provided by those with practical experience. I have been highly impressed by the quality of students.

As the undeniable impacts of climate change become increasingly apparent, I found myself driven to develop a skill set that would allow me to contribute positively to the future of our planet. I have always been convinced that the clean energy revolution is the game-changing catalyst that will redefine how we live our lives and interact with the world around us. The Executive Master in Future Energy (EMFE) blended programme at ESCP has not only provided me with the academic foundation I needed to immerse myself in this dynamic field but also inspired me to strive for a better tomorrow.

The diverse backgrounds of participants from across the globe, combined with the expert insights of highly qualified professors who possess both real-world and academic experience, have enriched my understanding and broadened my perspectives on the multifaceted challenges surrounding humanity's future energy needs. This collaborative environment has effectively complimented my civil engineering training, honing my critical thinking skills and enabling me to approach complex issues with innovative solutions.

Moreover, the European seminars have been an invaluable component of the programme, equipping us with both technical and interpersonal skills essential for success in the global energy sector. Engaging with various companies specializing in green energy and energy management, as well as visiting different power plants, has expanded my horizons and solidified my determination to play a pivotal role in shaping the global energy mix.

In addition to the enriching educational experience, the programme also introduced me to an incredible community of individuals.

I was looking for a programme that would develop the skills needed in the energy sector and provide a high level of comprehension of the industry. A programme that would focus on the industry’s challenges and advancements whilst highlighting the expertise in managing project financing as well as innovation. The EMEM programme was a wonderful journey that built a deep understanding of the energy ecosystem. By developing a holistic view of the multiple stakes of future energy, the programme is the most international and complete program I found. It provided me with practical skills applicable to my company, as well as the key knowledge on how to build strategies and make key decisions within complex and volatile environments. The diversity of my fellow classmates was also a great add-on, exploring the challenges each of us are facing in our various regions. Since completing the programme, the future strategy for Renewable Energy Sourcing is now under my leadership within my company. I know that the skills and knowledge I have gained throughout the programme will be invaluable to my career now and in the future.
