Kompetenzziele

After successful completion of the module students should be able to:

  • characterise the global energy system and analyse the structure and constraints of today’s energy system
  • explain the availability and connection between solar and wind energy
  • identify the problems and challenges of energy supply due to fluctuating energy resources with varying and seasonal load profiles
  • relate the solar irradiance conversion process as well as the atmospheric radiation balance of the earth to Wind Energy Meteorology
