Introduction to the course:
The challenge of climate change and the reduction in the cost of renewables is driving a transition from fossil to renewables. The course will provide an overview of the status and potential of renewable energy technologies and systems and identify possible applications in the oil and gas industry. Options for hybridising with gas and the role of gas in a future scenario with higher renewables will be discussed. The course will enable engineers and managers to do basic calculation and sizing, economic viability and carbon savings for different renewable technologies.
