Reliability, and Economics Energy technologies exist within a context of economic, policy, and behavioral choices that affect their adoption. This course will introduce engineering methods for analyzing risk, uncertainty, and system-level decision- making. We will investigate criteria that affect energy systems: reliability, resilience, economics, financing, health, and environmental impacts. Prerequisite(s): fourth-year status in Engineering. Lectures three hours per week. [0.5 credits]
