Masters Degree Description

To achieve net zero emissions a new relationship is required between how we produce, supply and consume energy: innovative smart energy technologies and services are crucial. UCL’s Smart Energy and the Built Environment MSc equips you with the skills and knowledge for a career at the forefront of the smart energy revolution. It focuses on integrating renewables, storage and smart control of demand to enable global decarbonisation, ensure resilience and security of supply and cut costs.
