| | Level of Course Unit | | First Cycle | | Objectives of the Course | | It deals with the use of renewable energy sources and the obtaining of the necessary electrical energy and heat energy. The fields of work for renewable energy sources are natural phenomena such as sun, wind, tides, plant growth and geothermal heat, and aim at how these events are used. | | Name of Lecturer(s) | | Dr. Öğr. Üyesi Murat ABDİOĞLU | | Learning Outcomes | | 1 | Students, renewable energy; use their knowledge about energy, environment and economic systems and evaluate the interactions between economic systems scientifically. | | 2 | Students explore how to reduce energy risks to meet their growing energy demands. | | 3 | Students use their knowledge of electricity and heat, solar, wind, ocean, hydropower, biomass, geothermal resources, biofuels and hydrogen to acquire information from renewable sources. |
| | Mode of Delivery | | Normal Education | | Prerequisites and co-requisities | | None | | Recommended Optional Programme Components | | None | | Course Contents | | Renewable energy; evaluate interactions between energy, environment and economic systems in scientific interdisciplinary studies. In this way, it tries to reduce the risks of climate change and to meet the increasing energy demand. Electricity and heat are derived from renewable sources such as solar, wind, ocean, hydropower, biomass, geothermal resources, biofuels and hydrogen. With the use of these resources, energy infrastructure investments, energy security and regulation, project planning and market structures are based on how to meet this demand. | | Weekly Detailed Course Contents | |
