Courses reviews
“It was great to get firsthand information directly from representatives of Nord Pool, the TSOs and other market stakeholders. It was worth travelling from Montréal to Norway to exchange with different market participants in person. The training, with the sessions, was worthwhile, but I also greatly benefitted from the informal discussions with the other attendees.”
- Jean-Daniel Langlois, Axium Infrastructure Inc
"For me, these two days painted a structured and comprehensive picture of how markets work. Presenters were open to answering more specific questions while presenting and if necessary to continue the discussions after the presentations. In addition, I definitely enjoyed less formal but eye-opening talks with participants from very different backgrounds- therefore one can’t underestimate the social part of the event!"
- Mario Vee, Energiasalv Pakri OÜ
“I am extremely happy with the course in the sense that it is both relevant for what I am doing at work currently. But also for my own knowledge in the sense that I've gained a full understanding of what the different roles and responsibilities of the different market players are.”
- Amanda Nqwenya, Energistyrelsen (Danish Energy Agency)
