The importance of these technologies creates a need tofocus on the development of energy courses as part of the engineering curriculum. In suchenergy-related courses, user-friendly applications such as MS Excel can be used to enhanceeducational goals like the assessment of the energy consumption of these energy-efficienttechnologies.
