This course was contributed by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), World Energy and Meteorology Council (WEMC), Beijing Climate Centre (BCC) and the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) to update energy practitioners on the state-of-the-art in weather and climate modeling and forecasts at different timescales, and to create awareness about the application of weather & climate information for the energy sector and help foster a dialogue between both communities to address major energy challenges in upcoming years.
The course offered opportunities for discussions and practical examples. These activities were also aimed at the drafting of mini-proposals for an energy climate service. In addition, the course included guest lectures to provide in-depth exploration of the current frontiers in the energy and climate nexus and a visit to a nearby energy site. The course was targeted at energy sector specialists with a broad understanding of meteorology and climate, and to meteorologists and climate scientists who wish to better understand the energy business.
