Description of the lecture

The lecture ‘Future Energy System – Part 2‘ is a highly interdisciplinary lecture series presented by different chairs. The lecture gives a comprehensive overview of the essential elements of the future energy system as well as important topics of sector coupling. In the individual lecture units, detailed knowledge about important technologies and evaluation systems of the energy system is conveyed. Interrelationships between the technologies of the different sectors are taught and the potentials of both the individual technologies and their effect in combination are evaluated and quantified.

The lecture is in English and is aimed at students of all faculties. A solid knowledge of the energy system and a basic education in engineering or science is recommended as prior knowledge. The lecture is the second part to ‘Future Energy System - Part I: Power Generation from Renewable Energies’. It is recommended to hear that lecture first, but it is not necessary.
