Renewable Energy Liverpool John Moores University

Overview

The global demand for clean and renewable energy has been rising steadily due to recent collaborative international efforts to tackle climate change and reduce carbon emissions. 

Key features

• Specialised skillsets and knowledge in energy resources, such as hydroelectric, wind, and solar energy, are required to meet demand, as currently there is a limitation of knowledge and skills for the design, installation, operation, and maintenance of the critical infrastructures needed for safe renewable energy. 
• LJMU's School of Engineering expertise in traditional Marine, Offshore, Mechanical, Electrical & Electronic Engineering programmes is globally recognised. This programme is built on this expertise and provides a route for those already in or aspiring to take on managerial roles in this sector. 
• The School future proofs this programme through inclusion of new and emerging technologies in  renewable energy systems, photovoltaic/wind energy converters and their connection to the power grid.
• The foundation of this one year Renewable Energy programme offered by Liverpool John Moores University is built around three subject specialist modules; ‘Renewable Industry Economics’, ‘Renewable Energy Resources and Site Selection’ and ‘Offshore Renewable Energy Technologies’.
