Overview

CLEAN-kWAT is ERASMUS+ KA2 project dedicated to "Integrating Environmental Considerations into Energy Systems Development" In Turkey and in Europe, a number of legal elements of environmental reform, have been put on the agenda as part of the environmental planning and education where development of energy systems that protect the environment is an important part. Since energy systems, especially fossil fuel based, lead to global warming, future energy systems must be designed according to the rules of environmental and climate protection. In the energy departments in many Turkish Universities there are no obligatory courses related to environmental impacts of energy systems. Since the departments for energy systems engineering show increasing trend in recent years, there is a need for supporting education with training materials, especially with innovative ones. Therefore, the main target group of this project are energy systems designers and engineering students in related departments, mainly in energy systems engineering. It is necessary to enhance the quality and performance of Vocational Education Systems (VET) by improving guidance systems, promoting creativity, innovation and sharing EU experience. The CLEAN-kWAT project will address these issues by developing Learning Outcomes based training systems and redefinition of competence standards for selected professions. PROJECT RESULTS • Training Book on “Integrating Environmental Considerations into Energy System Development” The book covers technological and environmental aspects of conventional energy production systems and the use of renewable energy sources (, wind, wave and tidal, geothermal, hydrogen gas, biomass). • Documentaries (visual training materials) They will be produced for each chapter of the Training Book and distributed on DVD and YouTube. • Elaboration of Learning Objectives
