2) Acquisition of specific skills in terms of knowledge related to the topics covered in the different modules.
3) Acquisition of a method of analysis that presupposes, for each module, knowledge of the existence and usefulness of specific sources and tools, indispensable for any in-depth work.
4) Ability to realize with clarity and precision (conceptual and lexical) group and individual presentations and speeches.
5) The content on which the skills acquired in the cluster will be applied will specifically concern the economic, legal and historical-political spheres with particular reference to the links between markets, regulation and economic policies.

|
In the first part the course aims at providing an advanced knowledge of some relevant issues in the field of the multilevel regulatory framework (European law and domestic law) for energy markets (mainly electricity and gas). In particular, the course is focused on law, regulations and measures adopted for the promotion of competition in energy markets and the development of sustainable energy. In this perspective, after a general analysis focused on the European energy policies, the course studies special regulations that govern the production, transport, distribution and sale of electricity and gas, focusing on the pro-competitive regulation of energy markets imposed at European level. In addition, the course explores incentives and measures that stimulate the production of energy from renewable sources, in general and with particular reference to some sectors such as transport and sustainable mobility. Some business cases are discussed during the lessons.
In the second part, the course provides a first-hand operational insight on the measures adopted by EU Member States, within the Next Generation EU framework (NGEU), with a particular focus on those lines of action that aim at promoting a balanced and result-oriented approach to renewable energies, energetic efficiency, sustainability and circular economy. The course adopts a practical and case-based teaching method, analysing relevant experiences in different Member States, looking at energy plants and networks, waste-to-energy and efficient waste management systems, green industrial conversion, sustainable agriculture, green local communities, new sustainable perspectives for and private real estate, as instruments for triggering a real green transition. The second part of the course comes as “natural consequence” of the first one and allows students to work together in research groups, having the chance to understand the economic effects of legislative measures in practice.

The course aims to provide the student with the knowledge of the relations between energy (supply, consumption, technology) and economy in the last century. The
course will integrate the basic knowledge of economic history acquired in the bachelor program
framing the following topics into an historical perspective:
energy sources and their exploitation (geoeconomy and
geopolitics of energy; technological
paradygms) energy policies (economic policies,
dependency and self sufficiency for energy consumption) energy and society (consumptions, living standards) the energy business (business history, history of companies and
firms in the energy sector) energy and economic development
LEARNING OUTCOMES
At the end of the course, the student will know different aspects of the recent history of energy as a
basic issue of the economic system
and will be able to understand properly the various existing
relations in this multidisciplinary field. That will give the students fundamental tools to analyze the world they live in.

3 CFU CARATTERIZZANTI Discipline Economiche
|
The course covers the basic principles of market regulation, from market failures to the main approaches for regulating different type of prices, with a particular focus on energy markets and their special needs in term of regulation. In the first part of the course the issue of the different rationales for regulation are discussed, including the conventional rationale based on the definition of natural monopoly and the need for addressing allocative and productive efficiency; moreover, alternative ways to control or influence firms’ behavior are analyzed, like competition for the market, contestability, state ownership, reliance on competition law and negotiated agreements.
In the second part of the course, after discussing the main type of industries structures typically observed in industries subject to regulation, the principles of regulation of the core network activities are analyzed, distinguishing among the principles that might inform the regulation of the activities that more closely resemble natural monopoly and those that might inform the competitive activities in the production chain. The analysis of the key pricing principles in different regulatory settings (full information, multi-product firms, imperfect information, multi-period context) is followed by the discussion of the methods by which price regulation is applied in practice to those activities where competition is limited or non-existent, like core network activities (pipes, cables, wires, rails). Such part of the course focuses on the general properties of each type of price regulation and provides a framework for the analysis of the more specific regulatory approaches applied in specific markets, with particular reference to energy markets (gas and electricity). Moreover, the course sets out the economic principles that might inform regulation in the presence of competition in some segments of the supply chain (eg. retailing or generation in energy sectors) and where the issue of the access to the network becomes relevant.
The last part of the course discusses the main insights from behavioral industrial organization that has affected the regulatory principles and how such insights have been applied by regulators. Finally, after discussing the characteristics of the different institutions that influence and apply economic regulation in practice, the course analyzes the specific regulatory issues associated to energy markets. In particular the analysis includes the physical and economic characteristics of the gas and electricity sectors, the regulatory approach, the scope and effects of restructuring policies adopted in different countries and the regulatory policy issues. Within this framework, solid evidence and multiple anecdotes are delivered in order show the concrete relevance of theoretical developments and to facilitate the understanding of reality.

Principles of Corporate Finance : the course aims to equip students with the analytical tools necessary to understand and make informed financial decisions within a corporation. The course focuses on key areas such as investment appraisal, capital structure, and financial analysis. Students will learn to evaluate investment opportunities using techniques like Net Present Value (NPV) and Internal Rate of Return (IRR), applying the time value of money principle. They will also explore capital structure decisions, understanding the trade-offs between debt and equity financing, and assess the impact of these decisions on firm value. Through theoretical and empirical lectures, practical exercises, and case studies, students will develop the ability to analyze financial statements, assess risk and return, and estimate the cost of capital.
