Course description
This course examines current and emerging technology options to manage and reduce energy consumption, improve efficiency and lower emissions to mitigate climate change. Key low emission power generation technologies and their costs, benefits, challenges, risks and associated supply systems will be examined, including advanced power cycles, Carbon Capture & Storage (CCS), gas, cogeneration and oil production. The course provides students with a broad understanding of the challenges required in transitioning from a carbon intensive fossil fuel based energy system.
