Event Details

Despite several efforts being taken by governments to tackle the causes of global warming carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions from different sectors have increased by 60% in the last three decades. A significant change in the climate has been observed as a result of continual CO₂ accumulation in the atmosphere. Problems associated with climate change cannot be solved without substantial advancements in technology. Energy transition is the process of reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to &lsquonet zero&rsquo. This is also known as &lsquodecarbonisation&rsquo of the energy system. Energy transition can be achieved by adopting emission reduction technologies in conventional power plants, cost effective renewable energy technologies, moving toward net zero gas power with hydrogen and carbon capture technologies, modernization of grid technologies, advancing nuclear power generation, and hybrid and electric vehicles. This will reduce climate change problems. Before implementation of such technologies or methods on large scales, modeling and simulation are required. This short term course will focus on creating awareness for academics, scientists and engineers about the recent development of

The short term course will provide lectures related to modeling and simulation of systems used in the following areas

Biofuels and their utilization, Power generation through renewable sources, Nuclear power generation. Clean combustion technologies, Carbon capture, storage and utilization, Hydrogen and hydrogen based fuels, Energy-water nexus, decarbonization technologies. It will also focus on the application of modeling and simulation tools used to develop such technologies.
