Course Description

The focus of this course is on carbon-free renewable energies. Students will first examine the use of carbon-based fuels, and compare and contrast these fuels to carbon-free alternatives including solar, wind, water, hydrogen, and nuclear energies. The course will emphasize qualitative rather than quantitative concepts, and will include social, economic, and environmental impacts of these alternative energy sources.

Notes

On-campus exam requirement for online offerings: For online sections of this course, your final exam will be written in person at the Toronto Metropolitan University campus. If you live more than 100 km from the TMU campus, you may arrange to write your exam off-campus using an approved off-campus invigilation service. Details on your exam date and how to arrange off-campus invigilation can be found on the Exams for Online Courses webpage.
