The aim of the lecture is to provide a broad overview of the energy system. Hence, the lectures offer basic insights into very different topics, such as specific technologies, economic aspects as well as the role of humans in the energy system.
Though the lecture is primarily tailored to the ENZo doctoral researchers, it is open to everyone interested in the topic. Especially interested master students and doctoral researchers of all faculties are cordially invited to attend. Completed subjects also allow attendance at single sessions.
