ENS3220 Energy Conservation Applications

1.1 conduct an inventory of energy use within a residential or commercial environment or transportation sector

1.2 analyze energy efficiency within the residential or commercial environment or transportation sector

1.3 establish a target level of energy efficiency and determine potential savings that may result from achieving this target

1.4 investigate technologies and/or strategies that can be used to achieve the target level of energy efficiency

2.1 identify an energy design problem relevant to a residential or commercial structure or transportation technology; e.g., size and/or weight, topographic and/or climatic factors, energy transfer and/or conversion, comfort and practical use, and cost limitations

2.2 identify limitations present in the design problem

2.3 investigate design technologies available to respond to the problem

2.4 examine similar structures or technologies that incorporate energy efficient design suitable for the context

2.5 generate alternatives regarding the design, select the most appropriate alternative and plan a sequence of tasks to create the structure or technology

2.6 create a representation of the structure or technology based upon the plan that has been selected; e.g., drawing or constructing models

2.7 evaluate the strengths and limitations of the energy design and consider alternatives that may improve the process and/or outcomes; e.g., original needs and intentions, efficient use of resources, human and environmental safety
