As the global energy transition accelerates, understanding where progress is likely, where it's hard, and what effective policy looks like has become a critical strategic question for business leaders.
In this free 60-minute masterclass, Prof. Reichelstein (Chairholder of the Endowed Chair in Business Administration and Founder of the Mannheim Institute for Sustainable Energy Studies) examines the decarbonization landscape across industrialized economies.
What you will explore:
- Sector-level decarbonization: Which industries are positioned for major progress this decade and which face structural challenges
- "Hard to abate" industries: Why certain sectors remain difficult to decarbonize and what pathways are emerging
- Effective public policy: What makes climate policy work in practice, not just in theory
- Global comparison: How China, Europe, and the U.S. are approaching the race toward a decarbonized energy economy and what that means for competitive dynamics
