2022 Elct. Efficiency Management

The far-reaching changes brought about by the energy transition are increasingly affecting other industries. Policy objectives and stricter regulations require companies to be more responsive to their energy and resource consumption, but there can also be great opportunities. In addition to potential savings through greater energy efficiency, the utilization of flexibility options can also be used to justify new business models.

In this module, innovative research approaches in the fields of energy efficiency and building technology will be analyzed and applied in cooperation with companies from the respective fields, offering students and companies alike an attractive cooperation at the interface of entrepreneurial praxis, research and science – a win-win situation for both sides.

Students look at aspects of buildings and energy efficiency, including greenhouse gas emissions, demand management, combined heat and power, process chain management, energy efficiency technologies, amortization calculations, local heating and cooling supply, project management, and ISO standards. In doing so, they apply the knowledge gained in earlier modules in practice.
