Synopsis:

The course deals with renewable energy sources and building energy systems. The different types of energy-solar, wind, biomass, geothermal and hydro-are discussed in detail. The characteristics of the energies and the most appropriate methods of use are described. Attention is paid to understanding the correct way to design facilities and systems that use renewable energy sources.

Requirements:

Completion of the assigned work within the specified scope and deadline.

Syllabus of lectures:

1 Introductory seminar, introduction to problems and schedule, legislation, regulations, situations, renewable resources, usability and availability of resources
