Important announcement

Dear visitor,

Please note that this OpenCourseWare platform will be replaced at the end of 2026 by a new platform (under the same url ocw.tudelft.nl).

Courses and their contents that are currently available the platform will partly be migrated. URL’s for this content will change and content might be unavailable for some time. In addition, some courses will not be available anymore.

If you are linking to specific courses on this platform (for instance for your students), please take timely measures to avoid problems with access. Possible actions are:

  • Download the materials to your local platform (laptop, server)
  • For educators only (including TU Delft lecturers): Contact us at ocw@tudelft.nl and inform us what course you are using in what context (institute, program, period of use, number of students). We will research (in collaboration with the authors of the course) and decide if we will migrate the course, and if yes, can supply you with a new url.

Thank you.

1.1.1 What is this module about?

Course subject(s) 1. Efficiency, primary energy, CO2-emissions, costs and application to boilers

Welcome back!

During this first module, we will make an inventory of all possible ways to generate heat, cold and electricity for buildings. You will learn how to use systems efficiencies to estimate buildings’ primary energy use, resource depletion and carbon emissions. This is the basis of the course, and, after that, you will discover the performances of electrical and combustion boilers in terms of primary energy, CO2-emissions and costs.
