Distributed Energy Generation (3cr)

Objective

You are familiar with the operation and structure of the Finnish energy system and the characteristics of the centralized and decentralized energy system. You are aware of the technical possibilities of renewable energy production and raw material procurement in sparsely populated areas. You are able to plan decentralized, environmentally friendly and economically justified energy production and solutions that improve its security of supply. You understand the importance of resource wisdom and energy efficiency as part of the sustainable development of the natural resource sector and the green transition.

Competencies (EUR-ACE)

Knowledge and understanding:
