Diploma in Sustainable Energy, Level 5

 

A constant demand exists for energy and fuel sources in the world. Historical sources of energy production are becoming more expensive to produce as well as reduced in supply.

Sustainable energy is the way of the future. Renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power generation are being demanded by more and more businesses.

Waiariki offers a series of courses that will provide students with an understanding of the different types of commercially available sustainable energy systems, their relative efficiencies and their different applications.

Graduates of this course will be able to contribute to the manufacturing sector through their improved understanding of the environmental impacts of energy technology and the principles of sustainable development.

Graduates will be able to:

  • understand optimisation of resources, processes and product flows;
  • demonstrate knowledge of energy, energy efficiency and production;
  • identify alternative energy sourcesand their efficiencies; and
  • understand resources required for production staff and leaders for projects at a tactical level.
