THE ENERGY POLICY OF THE EUROPEAN UNION

• Main objective of the EU energy policy: to ensure the availability of energy products on the market at an affordable price, whilst respecting environmental concerns and looking towards sustainable development.

• Energy supply & renewable energy sources (RES): The EU target is the fulfilment of 12% RES-share in the overall energy production by 2010.

• At present, 40% of the energy consumption within the EU corresponds to the residential sector. Buildings should therefore meet minimum energy performance requirements.

• Intelligent Energy – Europe is an EU programme for the promotion of energy efficiency and renewable energy sources.

This objective will be achieved by means of a three pronged strategy:

• NEW AND CONCRETE MARKETNEW AND CONCRETE MARKET

• PROMOTION ACTIONSPROMOTION ACTIONS

• TRAINING ACTIONSTRAINING ACTIONS

• Granted project of the Intelligent Energy – Europe Programme • Promotion of the use and installation of Small Scale

Renewable Energy Sources applications in Buildings, mainly solar and biomass energy.

THE RESINBUIL PROJECT: MAIN GOAL

THE SOLAR ENERGY AND OTHER RES IN BUILDINGS COURSEMethodology:

The course will be taught in English language through the web-based environment of the University of Burgos for distance teaching, UBUcampus-e. This virtual platform allows the delivery of electronic textbooks and documents, engineering software tools, simulations, animations, questionnaires and exercises.

Assessmentthe main assessment of the course relies on the realization of exercises and the final project, which will show if the attendants have become skilled RES technicians.
