For:   EM  

 

Prel. scheduled hours: 40
Rec. self-study hours: 120

  Area of Education: Technology

Main field of studies: Mechanical Engineering, Energy and Environmental Engineering

  Advancement level (G1, G2, A): G2

Aim:
The overall aim of the course is to provide a systems perspective on energy supply and energy demand in different types of industrial systems with focus on energy efficiency. After completion of the course the student is to be able to:
  • Describe, explain and illustrate overall structure and development of industrial energy use and the influence on its environment
  • Describe and discuss the function of different industrial processes and their energy use
  • Describe and critically use unit process categorization of energy demand
  • Critically review and carry out industrial energy audits
  • Describe and reflect upon different types of measures and their potentials within industrial energy systems
  • Describe and reflect upon systems consequences from measures on the supply and demand side within industrial energy systems


Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered)
Sustainable energy systems, Building energy systems

Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.

Supplementary courses:
Bachelor Thesis - Energy and Environmental Engineering, Modeling of Energy Systems, Strategic pDevelopment of Sustainable Energy Systems, Analysis and Modeling of Industrial Energy Systems, Energy Planning and Modelling of Communities, Energy Policy Instruments, International Energy Markets, Project Course Advanced - Energy Engineering

Organisation:
