Renewable Energy Systems and the Environment is one of the pathways offered within our Sustainable Engineering programme. Examining how quality of life can be balanced by the need for conservation of world resources, you'll explore the impact energy has on the environment and how it can be reduced
You’ll learn about different energy needs, renewable energy resources, and systems that control these resources, such as:
demand for power, heating, and cooling
energy storage
heat pumps
solar energy
wind and hydro energy
high efficiency systems
advanced materials
advanced controls
buildings and indoor environments
integrated heating, cooling and power systems (at various scales)
Our course has been running for more than 20 years and has over 400 graduates. External examiners consistently refer to our beneficial links with industry and the high quality of our project work.
