69th UNEP/UNESCO/BMUB International Short Course on Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency (SC69)
01217 Dresden
Nowadays, one third of the world’s population has limited access to energy supplies. Taking population and economic growth rates into consideration, world energy demand will rise by an estimated two thirds in the next three decades. Thereby, the energy sector accounts for 50% of the man-made green-house effect. Hence any serious action programme to combat climate change has to concentrate on measures which lead to improved energy efficiency as well as to expansion of renewable energy such as solar power, wind power, biomass, geothermal power and hydropower.
The course will focus on renewable energy technologies, their implementation and impact on the environment. Engineering as well as social, economic and legal aspects will be covered. Site visits to hands-on examples will demonstrate the potential and feasibility of a sustainable energy supply, based on “renewables”.
