3 Hawaii Recent Monthly Average Mauna Loa CO 2 August 2014: ppm August 2015: ppm World Energy versus world GDP (scaled to fit) Global Greenhouse Gas Emissions by Economic Sector Energy is a proxy for world GDP Transport accounts for 14% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions Source: IPCC (2014); based on global emissions from

4 Why Energy Systems Engineering? Greenhouse Gas Emissions Climate Change Diminishing Fossil Fuels Increasing Demand for Energy Energy Security Stringent Carbon Emission Constraints MULTI-DISCIPLINARY ENGINEERING REQUIRED Master of Engineering (ME) in Energy Systems Engineering Aims to prepare graduates to meet the engineering, economic and environmental challenges facing the energy systems of developed countries in the future. Will focus on the interdependence between; The electricity system, Building energy systems, The industrial production system, The food supply chain, and The transport system, - taking account of security of supply and climate impact / CO 2 emissions. Energy Systems Engineering Maintenance of current living standards in the developed world will require new ways to use energy more efficiently and also much bigger contributions from solar energy, wind energy, wave / tidal energy energy from crops / biomass / algae, nuclear energy, and from advanced fossil fuel technologies. Greater use of electrical energy in buildings and in transport is likely. Smart Grid and Energy Storage Technologies are needed. Fossil Fuels and Geology

5 Energy Systems - many different technologies Solar Power Second most mature technology after wind PV, CSP, DSSC - (not commercial yet) CSP PV Chemical Engineering Nanomaterials Chemical Processes Nano Particles MEMS Dye Sensitised Solar Cells Nano Drugs CNT s Algae Biofuels

6 Wind Energy Most mature of all new renewable energy technologies (excluding hydropower) Competitive with conventional fuels Continually evolving and improving Offshore Wind Power Floating Turbines E.g. Hywind Statoil, Ideol Electrical/Civil/Mechanical Wind Turbine Design and Manufacturing ENERCON Open Hydro - an Irish Company ME in Energy Systems Engineering 2MW, 16m Diameter - Deployment France October 2011 Is Climate Change Real? What do we do now? Who is going to re-arrange the world so as to maintain improving living standards for an ever increasing population? Accountants? Lawyers? Marketing people? Politicians??????

7 ME in Energy Systems Engineering This programme aims to provide students with a strong understanding of the complex multi-disciplinary and often conflicting issues that arise in the search for effective solutions to the energy challenges of the future. ME in Energy Systems Engineering Not restricted to renewable energy systems - aims to take a holistic or full-systems view. Includes modules dealing with nuclear power, with fossil fuel extraction, processing, combustion and carbon sequestration and storage. Inputs to the programme are provided from; 1. Mechanical & Materials Engineering 2. Electrical & Electronic Engineering 3. Chemical & Bioprocess Engineering 4. Earth (Geological) Sciences 5. Civil Engineering 6. Biosystems & Food Engineering 7. Physics 8. Economics 9. Business 26 ME (Energy Systems) at UCD - Modules Energy Systems & Climate Change Fossil Fuels, Carbon Capture & Storage Engineering Thermodynamics II & III Chemical Process of Sustainable & Renewable Energy Wind Energy Power System Operation Energy Systems in Buildings Energy in Transport Kinetics & Thermodynamics of Materials, Nanomaterials Air Pollution / Environmental Engineering Fundamentals Nuclear Physics Energy Economics and Policy Entrepreneurial Management / Entrepreneurship in Engineering Control Theory / Process Instrumentation & Control Electrical & Electronic Circuits / Electrical Energy Systems II Power System Design / Power System Engineering Power Electronics and Drives / Applications of Power Electronics Research Skills and Techniques / Technical Communication Research Project / Thesis 27 UCD Engineering Degree Programme Pathways DN150 Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5 Stage 1 (60 Credit) DN150 Stage One Engineering (Common) Decision Point 1 Stage 2 (60 Credit) Stage 3 (60 Credit) Choose one of: Biomedical Chemical & Bioprocess Civil Electronic & Electrical Mechanical Decision Point 2 Single-Stage ME (2-years, 120 Credit) Master of Engineering(ME)* specialising in...
