教學目標
The weather condition has been changed significantly in the last few decades. The primary reason is the green house effect due to excessive use of fossil fuel. Alternative energy sources that is sustainable will need to be explored to reduce the dependence on the fossil fuel. Also, it is quite desirable that the energy efficiency of sustainable energy as well as traditional fossil fuel generating system need to be improved. The ICT and IoT systems had been widely developed in many areas to improve the efficiency. This course will discuss the different energy sources, especially sustainable energy source. Also, the use of ICT and IoT systems to improve efficiencies will be discussed.
