Course name:
Renewable Energy Systems – Design and Optimization
LUT University
Prof. Dr. Christian Breyer
About the program:
EnergyPLAN is included in energy-related Master degree programs at LUT University. These degree programs have renewable energy as a major and are typically linked to Electrical Engineering, Energy Technology, Sustainability Science, and Industrial Engineering. Aim for students is the design of a 100% renewable energy system for all energy demands with special focus on sector coupling, power-to-X, e-fuels, flexibility, high overall system efficiency, and low cost. This supports students in their learning on the opportunities of the energy transition in differentiated energy systems. Application cases are all round the world, typically on country-level, but also sub-national level, and often islands. Excellent students results are used for publications, such as for Scotland (link1), Bolivia (link2), and the Maldives (link3).
