MSc Energy
Energy-based on fossil fuels and, increasingly, renewables – is an essential component of our existence. The cost, availability and efficient utilization of energy are increasingly strong focal points in the strategies of governments world-wide, as they realize that the 'raw material' for most of the energy used today has a finite life.
Large industries and small households alike depend on a reliable provision of energy. Energy includes not only electricity but also heat and transportation. The course will make you aware of the relationship between demand and supply of energy, a relationship that consists of much more than its technical component. It includes political, economic and social issues and has to be viewed on a global as well as a local scale with respect to energy provision, consumption and the costs it might incur – both in the monetary as well as environmental terms.
We have seen countries go to war over energy supplies and we can see the effect of our energy consumption on the global climate. The concept of sustainable energy moves into focus as the finite nature of the main element in our current energy chain of supply – a fossil fuel – becomes more obvious. The Paris Treaty is just one example of international and national policy actions that have subsequent implications for legislation affecting industries and communities.
