- Energy engineering
Energy engineering is a broad field of engineering dealing with
energy efficiency ,energy services ,facility management ,plant engineering ,environmental compliance andalternative energy technologies. Energy engineering projects often combine expertise from civil, mechanical and electrical engineering.Energy minimization is the purpose of this growing discipline. Often applied to building design, heavy consideration is given to
HVAC , lighting, refrigeration, to both reduce energy loads and increase efficiency of current systems. Energy Engineering is increasingly seen as a major step forward in meeting carbon reduction targets.Energy Technology refers to the knowledge of and usage skills required for conversion, production, transfer, distribution and use of energy. This leads to the mastering of technology based on the laws of nature, as a result of which different forms of energy can be used to serve the needs of mankind in such a way that nature is spared and the economic resources of society are taken into consideration.
Energy and its relation to the environment is a new and rapidly growing field of
sustainability .External links
