What you will study
This specialisation sits inside the Master's in Sustainable Energy Engineering at Aalborg University. You study it in Esbjerg, and the teaching is in English.
What you study
The focus is on turning electricity into fuels. You learn to design and model production processes for green fuels such as hydrogen and e-methanol. The technologies you work with include carbon capture utilisation and storage (CCUS), electrolysis and methanation. Courses cover fluid mechanics, CFD, chemical reactors and process simulation.
The programme asks practical questions. How should a fuel station for hydrogen or other green fuels be designed? How do you scale up a laboratory concept to make methanol from CO₂ and H₂? How do you transport and store CO₂ and H₂ at large scale? How can Power-to-X systems be optimised and operational problems kept to a minimum?
You will learn to design equipment and build systems for green fuel production, and to work with the technologies behind the green transition.
