Dear USAEE Members, 

 

The United States Association for Energy Economics (USAEE) is pleased to partner with Louisiana State University to offer the 2026 Energy Fundamentals course. 

 

Energy Fundamentals is a weeklong program designed to provide a broad, interdisciplinary overview of the U.S. energy sector. The course covers key topics across energy systems—including fuels, electricity, and policy—bringing together perspectives from economics, engineering, and public policy. 

 

We are offering two sessions in Summer 2026: 

Participants include early-career professionals, educators, and individuals working in or transitioning into energy-related roles. The course is designed to be both accessible and rigorous, with opportunities for discussion and engagement across disciplines. 

 

A brief overview video is available here: 

 

Applications are now open. Space is limited, and participants are admitted on a rolling basis, so we encourage you to apply early to secure your preferred session. 

 

Active USAEE members are eligible for $100 discounted registration.* If you are not an active USAEE member, please become a member here.

 

If you have any questions or would like additional information, please contact us at usaee@usaee.org or energy@lsu.edu. We look forward to your participation.
