Do you know the difference between allocative and productive efficiency? Why do economists always talk about market-based mechanisms as the best means for reducing emissions? St Vincent de Paul Society in Partnership with TasNetworks is pleased to present you and your colleagues to a unique training opportunity with Associate Professor Tim Nelson and Associate Professor Dr Joel Gilmore.Over the course of a day, they will provide five 60-minute modules of content aimed at providing people without formal economics training an opportunity to understand energy economics as it applies to the Australian electricity industry. The course has been designed to focus on economic concepts as they apply to the energy industry for participants with very little formal knowledge of economics.
Unexpended funds from these events will be used to further the good work of the National Council.
Here is what delegates say about the Melbourne event:
"I wanted to say a huge thank you for delivering the course in Melbourne yesterday! I meant to say hi at the end, but you guys were busy chatting to others, and I had to run to a call. I was super impressed with how accessible you made all of the content, particularly for a non-expert like me. I also can't remember the last time I sat in a room for most of the day and hardly anyone was on their phone or laptop, they were all following what you were both saying avidly! Thank you also for sharing those extra resources, I am keen to do some serious follow up reading now. Congrats again, it's a great initiative and I'll definitely be spreading the word to others in my network to go along in future! "
