Why choose this course?

Renewable energy sources play a vital role in the continued reduction of our society’s carbon footprint. Understanding their availability, limitations and challenges is critical to engineering energy solutions which are balanced on social, economic and environmental grounds. 

By studying a Bachelor of Engineering (Honours) (Electrical and Renewable Power), you will gain an in-depth understanding of energy systems. You will gain hands-on experience working with technologies to generate electricity from renewable sources, including photovoltaics, wind power, solar thermal power, hydropower, and wave energy.
