  3. Course description: • This course is an introduction to sustainable and renewable energy technologies, including fundamental principles of operation, basic engineering economic analysis, energy payback time, embodied energy and the context of energy systems within a social framework. • It also includes an overview of existing energy systems and sustainability issues with these systems. • It covers renewable energy sources and generation systems which include: solar wind, wave, geothermal and biomass technology and issues relevant to each technology.

  4. Course aims: • To give students an understanding of the principles of operation for key renewable energy technologies, as well as energy sources. • To expose students to introductory level concepts in thermodynamics and fluid dynamics that relate directly to energy production. • To develop students' problem solving, design, creative thinking and communication skills. • To give students an understanding of financial considerations that go in to energy generation projects.

  5. Course outcomes (1) Upon completing this course, students should be able to: • Apply the basic physics of energy conversion, including laws of thermodynamics, basic heat transfer and fluid dynamics. • Analyze different renewable energy technologies, identifying key operating principles and relative merits/drawbacks for each. • Allows objective assessment of feasibility of different technologies in different applications. • Seek out information independently and solve problems by making reasonable assumptions to solve problems. • Acquire broad knowledge in technical, economic, environmental, and political issues related to energy generation technologies.

  6. Course outcomes (2) • To undertake problem identification, formulation, and solution based on covered concepts and techniques for different energy conversions in both physical and economic terms. • To develop analytical tools for assessing proposed technologies. • To analyze social, cultural, global and environmental responsibilities and to consider wider issues such as environmental impact. • To assess financial viability for proposed energy generation technologies to determine whether investment is forthcoming.
