EET127 — Alternate Energy Concepts and Solutions
EET 127 - Alternate Energy Concepts and Solutions EET 127 - Alternate Energy Concepts and Solutions This course takes an in-depth look at various alternate energy concepts and solutions for our modern world. Topics include current energy issues, energy usage, and the following specific technologies; photovoltaic (PV) solar, wind energy, geothermal energy, passive solar energy, solar thermal energy, atomic power, biofuels, and other special topics. Determine system requirements and calculate the optimum system for a given application (ie find the size of a PV system to meet peak home energy demands). Evaluate and compare different alternate energy systems by calculating the cost, savings and the payback period of the system.
