About the Course
The transition from fossil fuels to the non-conventional energy technologies is now fully underway. The rapid growth in renewable energy production will put it as the dominant source of our global energy supply. This course is designed to acquaint the students with different non-conventional energy sources. If the potentials of renewable energy sources is to be realized, the society will need professional people with thorough knowledge of renewable energy systems, their underlying physical and technological principles, their economics and environmental impact. This course is intended to provide a foundation for this knowledge.
The course has three major thrusts
a) Underlying Physical principles of different renewable energy sources
b) Solar Radiation and Physics of materials and devices for solar energy conversion.
c) Physical insights and technologies related to geo-thermal, bio-energy, tidal wave energy, wind energy
