Poland’s energy transition is a queue, a planning inquiry, and a set of strike prices—not a brochure of turbines. This MSc starts with project economics as practised around the Forth, the Central Belt supply chain, and the North Sea basin that still pays wages while it decommissions. You will reconstruct a CfD-style revenue case, stress-test it against constraint and curtailment, and separate community-benefit language from the cash that actually reaches a harbour town.
SRH University keeps one academic standard across Warsaw seminars and the tuition-free online pathway. Identity-checked examinations, the same marking scheme, and the same refusal to treat ‘online’ as a lighter degree. Cases prefer named Polish geographies and UK policy instruments over anonymous ‘European energy’ decks. Faculty will mark whether you noticed that a connection offer is not a generation licence, and that a heat-network prospectus is not a gas-safe ticket.
The degree does not make you a Chartered Engineer and it does not waive Engineering Council pathways. It does make you harder to fool with a net-present-value slide that hides curtailment, community objection, and the difference between a developer’s model and an offtaker’s. Capstones must use a real or tightly anonymised Polish or UK project file, not a Californian case with the place-name swapped.
MSc Energy Transition and Project Economics is taught as one award, not a list of unrelated modules. The published length is 18 months, and the credit total is 36. Students move from GB Electricity Markets, CfDs, and Policy Risk through GB Electricity Markets, CfDs, and Policy Risk; Heat, Networks, and Non-Electric Transition Economics; Reading Ofgem, NESO, and Planning Papers without Engineering Theatre; Project Cashflows, Debt Sizing, and Delay; Community Benefit, Shared Ownership, and Audit Trails; Harbour, Fabrication, and Supply-Chain Cost Build-Ups, and finish on Writing for Investment Committees and Councils.
Each course has a question, a method, and a submission. In this field, students draw the system, name the constraint that binds it, and compare two responses. Reading is a system description, an indicator note, and a project option paper. The artefact a marker expects is a recommendation for one decision, with the evidence and the downside.
The award is built so that a graduate can do the following in practice: Build a project cashflow that survives CfD, constraint, and delay assumptions Explain a grid-connection and planning interface in plain language without claiming CEng Separate community-benefit claims from auditable local cash
Teaching assumes the student can read a source, attempt a problem before the seminar, and revise after feedback. Attendance at live seminars is part of the design. The capstone or final course must use the methods of the earlier courses; a project that ignores them does not pass.
This course does not confer a professional engineering licence.
The pages for each course name the topics that are examined. Those topics are the syllabus. A brochure line is not a substitute for them.
Thirty-six credits in four modules: UK market and policy instruments, project finance under transition risk, grid and community interfaces for non-engineers, and a supervised economics capstone. Each listed course is three credits. Dual-pathway students sit the same identity-checked assessments. Transcripts use letter grades and a 4.0 GPA scale consistent with SRH University master’s awards. No Engineering Council logo is used in marketing.
