Course Objectives The aim of the course is to examine the essential technology, processes and policies related to energy distribution. Different energy resources will be analyzed and transportation of energy sources according to usage area will be examined. The energy distribution issue will be evaluated from logistics management perspective. The problems that are faced in energy distribution and the solutions for these are also included in the content of the course. Students will gain better understanding of the transportation of energy in general.
