SUS 505 - Energy Management

Credits 3
Lecture / 3 hours per week
Introduction to Energy Management principles and practices. This course places a special emphasis on managing energy systems. Working from the industry standard handbook, we will introduce the financial and engineering principles of Energy Management, and look at best practices for strategic design, implementation and maintenance. Students will get a quantitative grasp of different system and management options, both technologically and economically, with the emphasis being on analyzing relative efficiencies and value, but not engineering calculations per se. We will also look at the current standards for LEED and other building certifications.
