Course description
In this lecture, we aim to acquire the method while solving concrete calculation examples so that we can actually utilize the method learned in class. It aims to learn necessary framework, theory and method from both aspects of energy supply and demand to guide solutions related to environmental and energy problems facing global warming issues.
Purpose of class
It aims to learn necessary framework, theory and method from both aspects of energy supply and demand to guide solutions related to environmental and energy problems facing global warming issues.
Goals and objectives
  1. Students can understand the basic knowledge of each field of engineering, environment and economy related to environmental energy problem.
  2. Students can correctly understand the characteristics of energy resources and how to calculate supply and demand amount.
