Topic outline

  • Circular Economy for Energy Storage (Aalto-yliopisto)

    Time and space: 

    07.09.2020 - 18.10.2020

    Intended learning outcomes: 

    At the end of this course the students are able to:

    • Identify circular economy concepts and the role of energy in recycling
    • Recognize the material choice effect to degradation mechanisms of the system
    • Develop new design for recycling approach for energy storage application and justify with scientific argumentation
    • Share ones professional expertise in an online team


    Content:

    At this course, the students learn the theoretical context of circular economy and how activity, durability and recyclability of an energy storage application will be effected by material selection. The students get to evaluate the whole life cycle of different solutions and their effect on recyclability. The students prepare different scenarios for future energy storage applications that will take into account circular economy aspects and designs for recycling.
