Introduction

The rationale of this course is to lead the learners in exploring the opportunities and approaches of electrification in today and tomorrow industry. This course provides learners with a deeper understanding into electrical power system and its power conversion issues and practices, to appreciate the importance of developing waste heat recovery practices, and eventually build the overall picture of electrified land and air systems for a sustainable world.

The course is part of:
- Graduate Certificate in Sustainability — Strategy, Energy, Environment, and Circularity


 At the end of the course, learners are going to be exposed to frontier technologies and industry practices in the Electrification area through:

  1. Rolls Royce’s Lab “Electrification on Aerospace Industry & Waste Heat Recovery”
  2. A*Star Innovation Factory “Electrified Road Systems” and be able to: 
    • explain the electrification issues and challenges.
    • identify and discuss on waste heat recovery
    • list key components and functions of land and air systems
    • describe basic concepts and principles of electrical power system used in aerospace and electric vehicles
    • identify and discuss on power conversion issues and practices
    • illustrate the different methods for charging electricity

Scope includes:

  • Latest development in Aerospace Industry
  • Waste Heat Recovery
  • Electrical power system of more electric aircraft
  • Power conversion issues and practices
  • Advancement of electrified road systems
  • Conductive vs wireless charging

    Suitable for current and aspiring professionals at all levels, from developing sustainability and social responsibility knowledge and skills, including the purpose-driven professionals, engineers, business leaders, entrepreneurs, and the corporate social responsibility and consulting professionals.
