Learning outcomes
By the end of the module, you should be able to:
- Understand energy efficiency in the global context.
- Understand energy efficiency in the local context.
- Understand why efficiency projects should generally be implemented first.
- Solidify why efficiency comes first and be introduced to marginal abatement costs.
- Understand efficiency and demand reduction and be aware of some common examples of each.
- Understand loads and equipment sizing.
- Be able to employ the ‘start at the end’ strategy to reduce demands and have a high-level understanding of systems level thinking and optimisation.
- Understand the upstream impacts of reducing demands and equipment sizes specific to electricity infrastructure.
- Be aware of the risk of efficiency or investments locking-in a technology or sub-optimal solution.
- Have a memorable case study at your disposal.
Position and pathway
This module includes an optional online badge exam (micro-credential). Successful completion of the assessment contributes towards CEP’s Certified Professional in Energy and Certified Professional in Carbon qualifications.
Time commitment
The module comprises eleven (11) lessons and approximately 45 minutes of total video content. Learners will also complete eleven (11) progression quizzes, each taking around five (5) minutes, and one (1) completion quiz. The progression quizzes serve as gatekeeper steps, requiring successful completion before participants can advance to the next lesson.
Digital certificate
A digital certificate is issued upon achieving a minimum pass mark of 75%, recognising successful completion and understanding of the module. Please note that this certificate is separate from the associated professional certification.
This is our introductory module that outlines why efficiency is important and looks at organising energy and decarbonisation projects in a specific way to optimise the overall impact and minimise overall costs.
