Explore the basics of energy and its various forms. Join us as we learn practical ways to conserve and use energy more efficiently.
Description
To get a good grip on both the opportunities to save energy and to understand the boundaries and difficulties to put them in practice, this micro-credential will approach the challenges both from a holistic top-down approach as from a bottom-up, more measure-based and practical approach.At the end of this micro-credential you understand both the technicalities about the energy supply chain and the contextual boundaries given by the legal, political and economic background of the energy market. This will enable you to put the first step of the trias energetica, the way towards a sustainable supply chain, into practice.
