Introduction to Other Renewables

In the diverse and rapidly evolving field of Renewable Energy it is important for professionals to stay informed, make logical evaluations, and concisely communicate new innovations and technologies that may (or may not) impact their industry. In this semester long independent study unit students will apply their cumulative studies in the RET program to research, analyse and communicate emerging renewable energy technologies not included in the base curriculum. Students will identify impediments to implementation and address the social, economic, scientific, safety and competitive analyses of emerging technologies. In addition students will need to demonstrate team work, project and time management, peer and self evaluation.
