*Status Update*
Please note that following the recent events on the Coronavirus pandemic and with the main objective to preserve the well being of our attendees, WIT has decided to postpone the Short Course on Critical Infrastructure (Crit-Is) Energy Supply until next year. The course was due to be held 1-3 July 2020 in New Forest, UK and will now be held early 2021 in New Forest, UK.
***
The aim of this course is to introduce energy systems into the infrastructure. Water and food supply, transportation, governments, administrations, health, internet, communication channels, manufacturing of goods, the banking and other sectors essentially depend on energy. Without energy, all these infrastructures cannot be operated. Hence, the energy sector is today’s most critical infrastructure (Crit-Is). A failure in parts of the energy sector results in negative impact on other infrastructure systems - and may result in situations of disaster.
