Objective
After completing this course, you will be able to
list main renewable energy sources in Finland and globally

describe the basic principles of energy production processes using renewable sources
analyze the energy efficiency of renewable sources
evaluate the importance of production methods and subsidies in a national and international context.
Content
How are photosynthesis and carbon cycle related to renewable energy?
At which level are hydro and solarpower produced in large-scale centralized and small-scale distributed energy production?
Which machinery and devices are needed to produce heat and electricity from renewable sources and waste?
How would you compute the operating efficiency of a distant-monitored solar panel or solar collector, and how would you optimize the production?
In which way do the production subsidies affect the development of production and price in Finland and in Germany, for example?
