Course Overview
Course Title: Green Shipping and Marine Renewable Energy
Relevant SDGs: SDGs 7 & 9
Credit(s): 1 credits
Course Description:
The world has abundant natural energy resources from the wind, wave and tides. Being different from the traditional fossil fuels, these energy resources will never run out. Renewable energy is essential for reducing the potential devastating effects of climate change, and protecting the natural environment for future generations. Therefore, when we are talking about the future offshore industry, marine renewable energy stands in the breach. At the same time, the shipping industry is on a revolution for zero emission and unmanned development. There is an urgent demand to develop the technologies to support the sustainable goal in the ocean engineering sectors. This course will introduce the latest technologies in the field of marine engineering and new marine energy in the form of a lecture series, while focusing on the connection between green and smart ships and marine renewable energy resources, and discussing the future green marine network system. This course takes the interaction between teachers and students as a medium. Through direct dialogue with international top scholars with diverse backgrounds, students can exchange knowledge and ideas with teachers on an equal footing and achieve the best integration of teaching and learning.
