Osaamistavoitteet
Students having taken the course are able to provide a general overview on current energy resources and their sufficiency and usage. The viewpoint will be in total energy usage on global level and, especially, in energy used in power production. Students will also have a general view and understanding on the role of electrical energy technologies as a part of energy technologies and on their future potential and role. In particular student having taken the course can clearly separate renewable and non-renewable energy technologies, understand their role and potential for present and future societies. Furthermore, students can explain and argue plausibly on the role of different renewable energy resources and their usage in power production in the near future.
