5. Program of discipline
Description of academic discipline, its goals, subject of study and learning outcomes
The purpose of the study of the discipline: the mastering of methods and means of increasing the efficiency of the use of traditional and non-traditional energy resources in production systems. Discipline "Energy Conservation " is intended for studying by students studying in the field "Electrical engineering and electrotechnology" and aimed at raising their level of knowledge in the direction of reducing energy consumption. It contains theoretical information on energy saving in the industries and general industrial processes, the main technological processes and equipment, the operating conditions of the technological equipment, the modes of production and consumption of electricity, and the improvement of the energy efficiency of the operating modes of industrial-technological installations.
