Renewable Energy
Course description
Renewable energy is a branch of engineering that deals with the efficient, safe and cost-effective generation and transmission of various forms of energy from renewable, exhaustible energy sources automatically for use in all industries.
Renewable energy has recently become an important area of research in view of the ever-increasing prices of conventional energy and the increasing need and demand for energy. Some examples of renewable energy sources are:
Solar Energy: Energy generated from solar radiation, either directly through photovoltaic (PV) cells or indirectly through concentrated solar power (CSP) systems.
Wind Energy: Energy is generated from the movement of the wind, usually through wind turbines.
Hydropower: Energy generated by the movement of water, usually through hydroelectric dams.
Geothermal Energy: Energy generated from heat in the earth, usually through geothermal power plants.
Bioenergy: Energy generated from organic matter such as plant material and waste.
Employment opportunities
Solar energy engineer; wind energy specialist; biomass energy specialist; hydroelectric energy specialist; installation, maintenance, and repair of hydroelectric power plants that generate electricity from the movement of water; energy efficiency specialist; renewable energy project manager.
