Portuguese - Suitable for English-speaking students

Objetivos

At the end of this Curricular Unit, the student will be able to:



Describe the environmental impact of non-renewable and renewable sources, their capacity and limitations.

Know the applicable legislation in the case of production from renewable sources and the evolution that gave rise to the current legislation.

Characterize renewable resources.

Being able to establish models from which to calculate the producible energy from the studied resources.

Make calculations applicable to the economic evaluation of investments in renewable energy.

Know the current technologies used in electrical energy storage and its need when it is produced from renewable sources with very varied and unpredictable production profiles.

Know and apply the tools that make it possible to make a project for the production of electricity on a renewable basis.

Develop a project to integrate renewable energy based on photovoltaic technology.

Resultados de aprendizagem e competências

Several works, mini tests to assess knowledge and a project are carried out in the area of renewable energy to provide students with tools and skills they can apply in their professional lives.
So they are:
- Investment evaluations were carried out so that investments could also be evaluated.
- carried out final research and application work.

The evaluation involves the completion of three mini-tests, two assessment assignments, to be delivered on a date to be agreed, and the presentation of a final project.

There is only one type of assessment in this UC:
· Carrying out three mini-tests.
. Carrying out two evaluation works.
· Presentation of a final project.

Assessment by project (P) includes the preparation of a project (proposed by the teacher), its presentation and discussion.

Due to the assessment methodology, there is no final exam in this UC.

Fórmula de cálculo da classificação final

N_f = Final grade
MT₁ = MiniTest 1
MT₂ = MiniTest 2
MT₃ = MiniTest 3
ET₁ = Evaluation work 1
ET₂ = Evaluation work 2
P = Projet

N_f = 30%×(MT₁+MT₂+MT₃)+20%×(ET₁+ET₂)+50%×P
