Development of higher Education teaching modules on the Socio-economic Impacts of the Renewable Energy implementation
Start a new DMP in Loading
Better understanding of the socio-economic impacts of implementing renewable energy and energy efficiency (REEE) technologies enables faster and more sustainable development of the REEE market. However, this knowledge field is underrepresented in the existing technically overwhelmed teaching curricula at universities and hence, is considered a deficit that should be reduced. By doing this, a proper preparation of qualified working force needed to sustain the development of the REEE market will be ensured. The importance of this project comes from tackling this problem by integrating the socio-economic dimension in REEE teaching programmes offered at HEIs in beneficiary countries. In this context, this project aims at developing and implementing interdisciplinary teaching modules and training courses on the socio-economic impacts of REEE on university teaching level. While the teaching materials target graduate and post-graduate students, the training courses are designed to train the teachers involved in the process. The teaching modules will be prepared by the project partners in close cooperation with associated partners form the society, academia, public and private sectors. The teaching modules cover the following aspects: - Analysis of macro- and micro-economic impacts of REEE projects - Analysis of social impacts of REEE projects- Analysis of ecological impacts of REEE projects- RE project management - International and regional REEE markets - Sustainable development of REEE market In the implementation phase, the modules will be incorporated in existing curricula at partner universities and thereafter at associated universities. In a following step, these modules will be disseminated through targeted e-learning and training sessions. The expected impact of this project is mainly making the teaching of REEE at participating universities more comprehensive by covering the socio-economic dimension. This shall enhance the students’ knowledge level and
