The degree courses in Energy and Environmental Engineering cover subjects from all specialist areas involved in the generation, distribution, control and use of energy. These include:
On the path to becoming a technician specializing in energy and environmental technology (now: energy and environmental technician HF), you will acquire extensive knowledge about energy generation, conversion, transport, storage and efficiency and learn about all types of renewable energies. Energy and environmental technicians HF (formerly technicians HF energy and environment) deal with the connections between these technologies and nature (soil, air, water, agriculture) and learn to understand their effects.
As an Energy and Environmental Technician HF (formerly Technician HF Energy and Environment), you understand the complexity of ecosystems and can assess environmental pollution and protective measures. You will be familiar with the most important limited resources such as organic substances or critical metals and know how they can be substituted. HF Energy and Environment Technicians (new: HF Energy and Environmental Technicians) are able to dimension photovoltaic systems, determine the possible applications of wind power plants, use hydroelectric power plants in specific situations, calculate a biomass plant, calculate energy yield values and check feasibility. With your business management knowledge and project management skills, you will also be able to plan and implement projects independently and assess the economic viability of measures. As a future manager, you will lead teams, work with others to develop optimal solutions and communicate clearly with experts, the public and the people involved.
