I as an engineering student really loves the courses. the way it delivered is clear and simple, but it would be better if you teach or give lecture a little much longer for week 4 which quite hard to understand especially how those equation derived and some problems with its solutions. the rest is great!

It was such an amazing opportunity for me to learn about Wind Energy. I was quite satisfied with the content and the lectures. The only thing I think can be improved is the quizzes. The four last quizzes don't reflect ALL of the taught context. Generally, I am really pleased to pass this online course.

Excellent Course, with impeccable content and manner of presentation. It is great and if you are one with an engineering background, you might finish it in less hours than expected. My minor concern though is just some of the lectures are not that audible, I could give 5 star if that was not the case.

Overall I learned a lot that I did not know before about wind turbines. There is a lot of material here so it's not possible to go deep on all of it. But if the lectures were about twice as long I think they could cover more of the intuition behind the equations and that would be helpful.

I am just starting out as an engineer in the wind turbine industry and this was a good introduction. While I did not find the section on aerodynamics to be that rigorous, it did provide me with what I needed to learn so that I could learn it from sources more focused on aerodynamics.

Very interesting course which covers the basic concepts of the Wind energy Technology. I recommended it! However I rated this course in 4 stars because of the fact that some lecturers speak very bad English and some times was very difficult to understand what they were trying to say.

I like the assignments for this course. They are not straight forward which makes you search and put more effort into the content. I recommend this course for anyone interested in learning about the costs of wind turbines, the mechanics behind them, and the energy they generate.

Good course to have a very broad and general idea about multiple aspects of wind energy: costs, generation, design, technologies, and production. From an engineering standard point, you might not learn as much as you expect in terms of materials used, design, and efficiency.

Some exercises were too basic. Can provide more insights on the way the various formulae were derived. It was a good experience to actually get to know that there were a great many things behind the construction of a wind farm which I was totally unaware about.

Great sections on aerodynamics, giving the students the necessary tools to comprehend complex topics. A more broad description on Wind Energy economics would be appreciated, as well as further insight into control systems. Overall, great introductory course!

Very nice course to have an overview of all the complexity of wind energy. Good to see the fast growth of this clean energy in DN. Applies a bit of most every main field of what engineers learn at uni, so also good review of some main engineering concepts.

Really good course that handles all aspects involved in wind turbine energy generation projects. Really good choice for people interested in renewable, with no previous experience or knowledge in wind turbines. Designed for novice to intermediate users.

The course es very interesting and explain in general very goood, but the people dont have experience in the wind energy have mor difficult to understand units and formulas because teacher explain in general form. But I feel happy to learn this topic.

Good course on the fundamentals of wind energy conversion. Need some good knowledge in mathematics to take up this course. Assignments are interesting and need some good efforts to solve them. The explanation videos are simple and easy to understand.

Curso muito bom para quem deseja saber alguns conhecimentos básicos sobre a fonte. O curso também te dá uma boa visão de como se aprofundar mais, devido as várias características apresentadas. Deixa a desejar um pouco quando se trata de cálculos.

Es un curso bastante completo pero debería entrar más en detalle sobre los temas, a veces no es lo suficientemente específico y los estudiantes tenemos dificultades a la hora de resolver algunas preguntas en los quizzes. Por lo demás, muy bien

good level and comprehensive MOOC for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics oriented people and students. In my opinion, exercices evaluate too much mathematics skills compare to wind turbines knowledge. I recommend this MOOC.

Course content is in-depth and discusses major topics related to wind energy but does not explain in depth especially the one with actual case studies like graphs and charts. The instructor should have explained the case studies clearly.

Really good info, I would like to get some information about installation, maintenance and decommissioning as well end life use or repowering to increase my knowledge but it has been a really complete and useful course. Thanks a lot!

Good introduction into the different aspeects of the wind industry. I would have liked a bit more depth in many areas and possibly worked out examples of how the equations are used to design and analyse performance of a wind turbine.

Como introduccion es muy bueno. Depende de ti investigar mas en las referencias que vienen en cada capitulo. Lo unico malo es que la informacion que necesitas para resolver algunos quizes no esta bien explicada en el video teorico.

I had expected other topics, such as the different types of wind turbines, which generators are used and how the electricity is processed. Some of the topics covered were completely new to me, but they were still very interesting.

Bom curso, lhe da uma visão interessante sobre a energia eólica, seus componentes e como podemos tanto tecnicamente/economicamente analisar todos os traços para instalação/manutenção/operação de plantas ou equipamentos envolvidos.

For a short time course it provided all the necessary information to cover all the perspectives of wind energy and to do so it made the assignments tough nuts to crack. So, it will eventually take more than 5 weeks to complete.

Overall the course was great, covering wide range of topics from economics to mechanics of wind turbines. There were some mathematical and electrical topics that i found challenging like integral spectra and grid connections.
