As the energy transition touches multiple disciplines, please refer to the main Energy guide for a more holistic view of our energy related resources. This guide is designed to support the MET program's specific curricular goals and highlight specific resources. You will also find course pages designed in collaboration with MET faculty within this guide.

Through our GlobalData modules, you can access a database called "Energy Transitions" that allows you to track the energy transitions through key factors including transition metals needed to power the transition, power supply and demand, energy storage, renewable refineries, low-carbon hydrogen development, carbon capture developments (CCUS), electric vehicle markets, energy transition market forecasting, and thematic analysis of the transition itself. To learn more about this powerful tool, please contact your librarian.
The Energy Transition Show, hosted by veteran energy analyst Chris Nelder, is a leading podcast offering in-depth, fact-based exploration of the global shift from fossil fuels to renewable energy. Since its launch in 2015, the show has earned a reputation for its rigorous analysis, balanced perspectives, and expert interviews, making it a trusted resource for professionals and enthusiasts alike. Nelder, who has written extensively for publications like Nature, Scientific American, and The Atlantic, brings decades of experience to each episode.
The podcast covers a wide range of topics, including solar, wind, nuclear, electric vehicles, grid modernization, and climate policy. Notable guests have included Emily Grubert, Associate Professor at the University of Notre Dame, discussing the complexities of decarbonizing steel production; Tim Gould of the International Energy Agency, analyzing global energy outlooks; and economist Mariana Mazzucato, exploring the role of public investment in green industrial strategy.
