) Algorithms can be learned fromhistorical data, predict energy generation, optimize grid operations, and enhance overall systemperformance. Furthermore, time-series analysis can be carried out to understand dynamic behavioralpatterns that is crucial for managing optimizing efficiency and resource utilization. Finally, optimizationalgorithms help us make informed decisions, allocate resources efficiently, and minimize waste and lossesin energy [3]. 1Renewable energy and sustainability are critical topics in engineering. We live in an age of environmentalawareness, and alternative energy education is present in most of our daily conversations in engineering,technology, and science education. Renewable

emergingtechnologies and with a Jigsaw ACL determine what technology has the potential torevolutionize energy on their island in the future.introductionIn the 2014/2015 school year, as a newly hired professor at the University of Denver in theMechanical and Materials Engineering Department, I was given the opportunity to create newtechnical electives for our undergraduate students. At the University of Denver when I arrivedthere were no courses in Energy Systems for our students beyond the core Thermodynamicscourses, so I created a new elective known as “Mechanical Energy Systems Engineering”. Acourse on energy systems is important for students because it provides students with amultidisciplinary perspective, fostering critical thinking and problem-solving
