Renewable Energies in the Earth System (engl.)

Renewable energies are an essential part of the energy transition, and their use must be feasible not only technically but also economically. In this course, we want to acquire basic knowledge about the use of renewable energies, learn about different types of energy and, in particular, gain a better understanding of their resources. The underlying concepts will be developed using the example of wind energy use and transferred to other types of energy. We will go through the basic aspects of planning and developing a wind project and reflect on which (technical, economic and ecological) issues have not yet been resolved and require further development.

Requirements: Basic understanding of energy types and conversion.
