Masters in renewable energy and energy efficiency

In recent years there has been an unprecedented growth in the energy sector at European and international level, in response to social demands, political and economic bet for a better use of energy and generation of it through sources not pollute the environment. Action Plans Renewable Energy, both nationally and internationally, they envision a highly competitive labor market in the coming years in the areas of energy efficiency and use of renewable energies, which already exists today high demand professionals trained in these areas, but also with a level of demand in terms of high theoretical and practical knowledge, only achievable through college.

The title of Master in Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency offers the possibility to engineers, technical engineers, architects and technical architects to acquire the knowledge and experience required for the operation and management of renewable energy (solar, wind, clean vectors, biomass and biofuels , etc.), knowledge of the electricity markets and Charges, energy audit, energy rating of buildings, bioclimatic architecture, legislation facilities, internationalization, and in general all project management based on energy efficiency or renewable energy to compete in the current and future labor market in this growing field of professional activity.

The lessons for the Master in Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency are official and the curriculum is published in the Official Gazette number 67 of 19 March 2014.

Addressed to

Engineers, technicians, engineers, architects and technical architects who need to acquire the knowledge and experience necessary for the operation and management of renewable energy, knowledge of the electricity markets and Charges, energy audit, energy rating of buildings, bioclimatic architecture, legislation installations, internationalization and, in general, all based project management in energy efficiency or renewable energy to compete in the current and future labor market in this growing field of professional activity.

Main objective of the Master

The main objective of the Master is the presentation and implementation of the necessary measures to implement and operate the main sources of renewable energy, presentation of the principles on which the ESCOs, tools for monitoring and optimization are based notions consumption and audit application frameworks, legislation and energy rating of buildings, projects and facilities. It also seeks to highlight the value chain of renewable energy projects and energy efficiency, with particular attention to econometric analysis of these projects and their emerging energy market. Thus the Master is responsible for providing comprehensive theoretical training and practice in all matters relating to the exploitation of renewable energy and management, legislation and auditing of energy efficiency projects, installations and buildings.

Methodology

on line

Classes online. The program includes an instructional design based on the European Higher Education Area and the own methodological model. The evaluation system is continuous learning and is based on: learning activities (evaluation tests based on the collective generation of knowledge); self-assessment test (testing interactive online evaluation); ongoing evaluation activities (AEC) (cases and case studies, information search, implementation and reporting); semester final exam face.

They begin in the months of October and February each year. The normal duration is 12 months.
