Sensors for a Carbon Free World
About this course
In the Specialization on Sensors for a Carbon Free World you will learn about how sensors are at the core of renewable energy technology. You will study the technology, architecture and components of electric vehicles, wind turbines and solar panels. Then you will identify and learn about the sensors that measure and control the critical parameters that run these devices. The sensors include battery monitor IC’s, oil pressure and current sensors, carbon dioxide and oxygen sensors, resolvers, anemometers, accelerometers, strain gauges, and hall effect sensors. The sample learner has a 4-year degree in electrical engineering, is early to middle career, and needs to specify sensors for renewable energy equipment. The learner may also be a graduate student or corporate research engineer assigned to gather process or sensor data.
