Course abstract | |
The aim of the study course is to acquire economic analysis principles of business evaluation in electric energy supply. Economic aspects of fossil and alternative (renewable) energy sources use in electric energy generation and supply are assessed by evaluating the technical, technological, social and economic aspects of the particular application. | |
Learning outcomes and their assessment | |
Knowledge - about the electric energy generation and supply sector influence on the economy - the theoretical and practical aspects and trends;
Skills - assessment of electric energy generation and supply projects from technical , technological, social and commercial aspects, linking them to financial and economic factors; Competence - the commercialization of electric energy generation and supply project evaluation, economic and financial aspects of the assessment |
