Why is it important?
This paper is important because it is imperative that our engineers are equipped with energy efficiency knowledge and skills as quickly as possible. Currently higher education coursework does not include much on this topic area, so we need to develop curriculum, and quickly.
Perspectives
This publication took more than a year to write, seeking input from State and Federal government colleagues, and seeking permission to report on the lessons learned. As a result the findings and insights are rich and relevant - in particular to avoid repeating mistakes elsewhere!
