Abstract
In this paper, we describe the outcomes of a project-based engineering learning exercise undertaken by students to study the need for a country or a region to introduce policies on limiting the use of fossil-fuel based energy which has become a high priority. The specific task was to determine if achieving renewable energy goal of the jurisdiction was feasible in the short-term and the long-term. The students choose to carry-out projects of varying depth and complexity while meeting the same learning targets. The results of a sample project are given.
