Lecture topics by week in the semester: 1. Introduction, overview of modern power plants, state of energy in our country and in the world, fuels, biomass, renewable energy sources 2. Specification of power plants with regard to sustainable energy (classical and nuclear power plants, heating plants, gas turbine power plants, steam-gas units, hydroelectric power plants and others) 3. Air pollution by power plants, reduction of pollutant emissions (ash, SOx, NOx, COx) during fuel combustion, waste from power plants 4. Assessment of the entire life cycle of the power plant (construction, operation, decommissioning and including fuel production) 5. Project systems, investment plan, project documentation, influence of ecological laws on design, project documentation law 6. Investment costs of energy equipment. Production price of electricity in different types of production plants (heating plant, power plant, heating plant) 7. Environmental friendliness of operating systems in the power plant (chemical treatment of water, block treatment of condensate, water pumping stations, basic principles of cooling circuits) 8. Environmental friendliness of operating systems in the power plant (heat treatment of feed water, feed water tanks, feed water pumping station) 9. Environmental friendliness of operating systems in the power plant (turbine island with condenser, VT and VT heaters, condensate pumps, suction pumps) 10. Service life and reliability of pipe networks in power plants, basic pipe elements, fittings, thermal insulation, anti-corrosion coatings 11. Autonomous energy centers (heating, ventilation with heat recovery, cooling and hot water preparation) 12. Autonomous energy centers (production of electricity from biomass and renewable energy, storage) 13. Overview of studies on the direct effect of power plant operation on the health of the population
