Offshore Energy Systems

Offshore Energy Systems (OES) is a specialisation in the Master’s programme in Sustainable Energy Engineering.

<p>When you study the specialisation in Offshore Energy Systems, you will learn about design, analysis and modelling of offshore energy systems and system component interaction. You will get to work with fluid and water wave mechanics, offshore energy systems, including electrical and mechanical systems, together with control, optimisation and diagnosis of offshore energy systems.</p>
<p>During the programme, you will study technologies related to different kinds of energy systems such as offshore wind turbines, offshore hydrogen production, wave energy, etc.</p>
<p>The specialisation will give you insight into various technologies for energy transfer, harvesting and control of offshore energy systems. You will also learn how to design, analyse and model mechanical systems, fluid power systems and electrical systems with complex dynamics and elements with non-linear behaviour.</p>
<p>You will explore themes such as:</p>
<ul>
<li>Design, modelling and optimisation of energy systems used in various offshore energy applications</li>
<li>Operation, functionality and interaction between the various components of offshore energy systems</li>
<li>Systems integration with respect to both systems efficiency and control engineering aspects of offshore energy systems</li>
<li>Developing, constructing and operating offshore energy systems in the laboratory and in real applications</li>
<li>Practical realisation and implementation of offshore energy systems concerning both innovative aspects, business planning and economic considerations</li>
</ul>
<p>In your semester projects, you and your project group will work on relevant issues regarding offshore energy systems that challenge you to use all of your knowledge to come up with possible solutions. You will be encouraged to collaborate with external organisations and companies in your projects to get an idea of the work processes and current issues in the industry. You will then be better prepared for your own work life after you graduate.</p>
<p>You will experience courses, problem-based project work and a high degree of interaction with industrial partners and energy supply companies. Companies will play an active part in your project work, and they will provide guest lecturers and arrange company visits. All of this will provide you with an excellent opportunity to build a network in the industrial world before graduation.</p>
