1. Introduction
2. Sustainability, definition, overview of the issue in the context of meeting human needs, economic possibilities and natural limits
3. Examples of diversity of biological systems and its sustainability capacity, global threats to the sustainability of biological systems
4. European goals of a sustainable society, the Green Deal for Europe in relation to energy management, energy security
5. Primary energy sources, their availability and sectoral consumption, state energy concept
6. Transformation of the use of energy sources over time, thermal energy sources from the perspective of their sustainability, reducing the negative impacts of the use of fossil fuels
7. Principles of the circular economy
8. Energy intensity of industrial processes, its assessment and possibilities for improving its efficiency
9. Economic tools for reducing the energy intensity of industrial production, emission allowances, a change in the perspective on securing energy sources and the impacts of measures on industrial sectors
10. Thermal energy management in the municipal sphere. Heating of buildings – types of heating, heat and fuel consumption in heating buildings.
11. Heat losses of buildings – losses through walls and ventilation. Principles of designing structures and buildings in terms of thermal properties. Possibilities of reducing costs for heating, insulation of buildings.
12. Categorization of heat sources – principles of combined heat and electricity production, heat pump heating systems, types of heating systems.
13. Local heating – heating options – underfloor, radiant, infrared, hot air. Solar thermal systems for heat production, types of collectors.
