Objectives of the Course

The aim of this course is that information is given to the students about alternative energy resources and about the energy which is an important input in agriculture

Course Content

In this course, informations are given about general energy. Potentials of general energy of Turkey and the world and potentials of alternative energy resources are exposed. Basic parameters are defined for solar energy, wind energy, hydrolic energy, geothermal energy and biomass energy. Informations are given about applications of alternative energies in agriculture.
