Familiarizing with management, especially with management in energy sector engineering. Fundamentals of product strategy management. Studying methods of energy accounting and energy auditing in energy sector, industry and final consumption. Finding opportunities to increase the rational use of energy.

Student responsibilities:

Grading and evaluation of student work over the course of instruction and at a final exam:

Continuous work through the semester by making one seminar (30%), one project assignment (50%) and two essays (30%).

Methods of monitoring quality that ensure acquisition of exit competences:

Upon successful completion of the course, students will be able to (learning outcomes):

After successfully passing the exam, the student will have the following abilities: -asses the energy state of an industrial or residential object -choose the most optimal techno-economic solution within the energy audit -argue the set of chosen measures in the energy audit -investigate the processes in the process industry by applying the Pinch method -create a simple energy calculator in one of the object programming languages -calculate long term energy demand of a chosen economic sector
