Description
If you're an entry level engineer, student, or just want to go into solar energy systems consultancy, then this course is for you!
There are several courses on Udemy in this filed, however, none of them touch on a few important topics in the solar energy space. This course fills in the void left by those other course and is positioned to be the best value for money and here is why
You will learn to use remote sensing tools and geographic information systems to pinpoint ideal locations for solar plants. This is a very valuable skill to have in the energy transition.
No other course on Udemy touches on bifacial photovoltaics. Bifacial photovoltaic modules will account for 40% of the PV market by 2030.
This course will be receiving regular updates and additions in order to improve based on student feedback.
You will learn how to determine the absolute best angle of tilt of solar modules at any given geographical coordinates without using any useless rule of thumb methods. This will be done completely by pinpoint parametric simulation in a fast and efficient way.
You will see what goes through the mind of a system design as we design a simple rooftop system for a client in Namibia.
I am always available to respond to questions or queries. Please feel free to point out any additions you will like to see in this course.
This course is for beginner to intermediate level and covers the popular software tools used in solar PV system design. You'll learn the basic concepts as well as
Geographic information systems
System Modelling in SAM
System Modelling in PVsyst
Basics of QGIS
And several other practical topics
By the end of this course, you'll be able to successfully design a solar PV system that guarantees maximum power output.
Who this course is for
Beginner to Intermediate Level Engineers
