Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences

The course deals with the properties and methods of using renewable and alternative energy sources. Students will gain basic information in the field of using solar, water and wind energy, biomass and using low-potential heat using heat pumps. The course also pays attention to alternative energy sources such as fuel cells, hydrogen techs, etc. They can use this information and experience in other practical applications and as a basis for solving complex tasks not only in the field of energy.
