Studio Projects

What’s happening in the Studio?

The Studio’s projects offer valuable context and insights into our energy systems. We’ve created powerful tools to make the business of energy easier to understand, explain, and navigate.

 

Mapping the world’s energy systems. 

Energy RoadAtlas is an innovative mapping initiative designed to document the topology of the energy system.

This proprietary knowledge base is a tool to learn, explore, and ideate. It’s a foundational database and visualization of the flow of energy, presenting crucial routes and overlays of key issues for further analysis. Energy RoadAtlas documents the many sources and main uses of energy, and the different ways energy is transported and transmitted, processed and transformed, stored and distributed between its point of origin and ultimate use.

RoadAtlas is an important tool to help energy leaders visualize the context they’re operating within, identify bottlenecks, efficiencies and emissions, and ultimately make better business, policy, and investment decisions.

Analyzing energy’s policy, capital, and technology dynamics.

Energy Wayfinder  simplifies the complex through simple guides and sophisticated models to better understand the shifting policy, investment, and technology factors driving the energy economy.

In Development:

Following the Money in the Canadian Upstream Oil and Gas Economy

For the first time, we’re capturing the flow of capital at each stage of the energy economy to model the outcomes of external influences, including policy interventions. We’re producing a powerful model with easy to follow visuals illustrating the interplay of policy and capital, to help you “follow the money” in the upstream industry.

Policy Risk Analysis

We’re creating a comprehensive digital repository of policies and regulations impacting the energy sector. This repository will encompass multiple jurisdictions and government levels, spanning traditional fossil fuels, renewables, and nuclear power. The primary focus of this project is to evaluate policies influencing Canadian energy systems, with an approach akin to a bond rating agency. 

Leveraging the power of artificial intelligence to untangle energy policy. 

PolicyAI is a collaborative initiative with AltaML that seeks to employ artificial intelligence to explore how energy policy may impact various stakeholders. Of particular interest to Studio.Energy and AltaML, is the opportunity to combine AltaML’s technical and Machine Learning (ML) expertise with Studio Energy’s expertise in energy policy to jointly deliver a positive impact in the field of energy.

Redesigning how we think about energy through compelling stories and energy literacy sessions.

Studio Sessions

This series of educational sessions that guides participants through the complexities of the energy business. By the end of the course, participants will have a robust understanding of energy policies, market dynamics, and the technological landscape. The capstone project will require participants to tackle a real-world challenge facing the energy sector, fostering critical thinking and practical problem-solving skills.

Energy Transition Stories and Lessons

Studio Energy is exploring and promoting the fascinating world of energy and its history. We are passionate about uncovering and sharing stories that illuminate the impact of energy on human progress. Our latest project, an anthology series on the history of the lightbulb, aims to captivate audiences with the rich and illuminating history of one of humanity’s most revolutionary inventions – the lightbulb.
