Sustainability and Climate Change: An Introduction to Low Carbon Road Transport

0

Explore the role of low carbon transport technologies in tackling climate changeThis course explores the key transport technologies, trends, and policies that are enabling a transition to low emission vehicles.You’ll build a strong understanding of transport carbon emissions that will stand you in good stead to further explore the many different topics around low emission transport in more depth.Explore how carbon emissions are affecting urban air qualityThe transition to low emission road transport is gathering pace as the world battles to control emissions-induced climate change and urban air quality issues.On this course, you’ll compare and contrast the leading low emission technologies in road transport.Whether you work in the automotive or energy sectors or you simply own a vehicle, as the world becomes more environmentally aware, more and more of us will be involved in the low-emissions transition.Compare hydrogen fuel cell, biofuel and electric vehiclesLow emission vehicles come in various forms. After exploring different types of net zero transport, you’ll study the benefits and challenges that arise from using hydrogen fuel cell and electric cars.You’ll find out about the requirements of recharging and fuelling low-emission vehicles, and consider the challenges these pose for existing infrastructure.Study low emissions technology with experts at CenexThis course is created and delivered by Cenex, The Centre of Excellence for Low Carbon and Fuel Cell Technologies.With over 15 years of experience conducting research and development and consultancy for low carbon transport and energy systems projects, Cenex is working to accelerate the shift to low emission transport.They are also a CPD-accredited training provider and have been providing training through the LEVEL network (Low Emission Vehicle Enterprise and Learning) since 2016.This course is designed for anyone looking to develop their knowledge of key sustainable transport technologies.This may include STEM students with a special interest in emission solutions or transport policy, as well as professionals – particularly in the automotive or energy industry – responsible for sustainability or Net Zero targets.

Sustainable Transport and Shared Mobility

0

Understand the environmental impact of road transportThe transition to low emission road transport is gathering pace as the world battles to control emissions-induced climate change and urban air quality issues.It is vital that when we make decisions about how to travel from A to B that we consider the most sustainable and appropriate modes of transport, and shared mobility is quickly becoming part of the solution.This three-week course is designed to give you a solid foundation into sustainable shared mobility transport as you explore the key technologies, trends, and policies that are enabling this transition.Explore the different shared mobility modes of transportShared mobility includes public transit, automobile-based modes such as carsharing, micromobility such as bike-sharing, and commute-based modes such as carpooling.On the course, you’ll explore different shared mobility modes of transport, as well as an awareness of their applications and limitations.This understanding will help you examine how shared mobility fits into the current transport model and how policy can affect the uptake of its use. You’ll also learn what the future may hold for each shared mobility technology.Gain invaluable insights on sustainability from the experts at CenexYou’ll gain an overview of the trends, policies, and innovations in the industry as well as an introduction to city planning. This knowledge will help you see how you can apply shared mobility in the real world.Guided by the experts at Cenex (The Centre of Excellence for Low Carbon and Fuel Cell Technologies), you’ll finish the course with an understanding of how shared mobility can reduce transport emissions and is a positive step towards sustainable transport.This course is designed for anyone interested in sustainability and the ongoing change in the shared mobility sector.It will particularly benefit you if you have a basic understanding of transport technologies.

Vehicle-to-Grid Charging for Electric Cars

0

Explore the functions, applications, and potential of vehicle-to-grid chargingVehicle-to-grid (V2G) charging technology is gaining a lot of traction in the electric car industry. By allowing the charging and discharging of vehicles, it turns them into mobile energy storage assets. The combination of the changing way electricity is generated and the increasing uptake of electric cars means that V2G charging could significantly reduce both costs and emissions.With that in mind, understanding how V2G technology works and can be used is simply good business sense. This three-week course, presented by Cenex, gives you the foundation you need to work within this exciting industry.Get to grips with vehicle-to-grid fundamentalsOn this course, you’ll learn V2G charging basics and the different situations where it can be used. You’ll gain a good understanding of why the technology is as important for electric car users as it is for the energy system, and of the industry’s current state of development.Explore the possibilities of the vehicle-to-grid industryOnce you know how far V2G charging has developed, you’ll delve into how much it can grow. By identifying barriers to adopting V2G charging, where its emerging opportunities are, and when the technology is likely to mature, you’ll gain insights into the industry’s potential. Use these to start making shrewd business decisions, or as a foundation for future learning.Trust the high quality of this Cenex courseCenex (the Centre of Excellence for Low Carbon and Fuel Cell Technologies)’s involvement in V2G charging research and demonstration goes back to 2016, from installing the UK’s first V2G charge points to delivering the world’s largest V2G trial in 2021. With over 15 years’ experience in low carbon transport and energy systems projects, the organisation is ideally suited to deliver this course.This course is designed for anyone looking to understand more about the V2G and electric car industry. Private business owners, public administrators, electric car owners, and those interested in management positions will all find it invaluable.
