What You’ll Learn

Heat is the largest end-user of energy in the world. Therefore, decarbonization of heating and cooling supply in the built environment and related industries is of crucial importance to meet the targets for reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. In this MOOC you will learn the core concepts and use tools to help you identify sustainable heating and cooling solutions for various types of user demand profiles. We will start by looking at what determines the heating demand of buildings and processes, and how this be reduced. Next, we will take a look at what sustainable sources of heat are available and how to match them to requirements of demand such as space, time, and/or quality (i.e., temperature level). Finally, we will discuss technologies for heat storage, distribution and conversion. Additionally, experts from industry will showcase examples of successful sustainable heating and cooling systems.

After taking this MOOC you will have a clear overview of all the relevant technologies needed in the heat transition and understand which are best suited to which conditions including your own case. This MOOC is suitable for technical professionals who want to contribute to the adoption and successful operation of sustainable heating and cooling systems, but also for policymakers who need to identify solutions and policies to enable the adoption of renewable resources for heating and cooling.
