Energy efficiency and sustainability engineering

What it covers

This unit explores the theory and practice of the supply of energy, energy management and auditing, and the design of sustainable energy facilities. It deals with the systems needed to create low-energy, sustainable buildings, including passive solar design, energy-efficient heating and air-conditioning, and combined heat and power. In addition, it includes coverage of transport energy and energy economics. Case studies from a variety of energy-focused industries such as building services, environmental engineering, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) and architectural technology will be discussed.
