What you'll learn

  • Fundamental Electrical Concepts needed for solar system designers.
  • Different configurations of PV solar systems.
  • Various components of PV solar system: Solar Panels, Charge Controllers, Batteries, Inverters, and loads.
  • How to design a Battery-based Solar PV system.
  • How to design a Grid-tie Solar PV system.
  • How to design a solar energy system using PVsyst program.

Requirements

  • No requirements needed, I started with the basics of electricity to help you understand the rest of the course.
  • Just open mind and passion to learn.

Description

We teach solar energy in a method used by Stanford University… So:

  • We start with important electrical concepts Like (Current, Voltage, Power, and Energy)

  • Then we go through the different configurations of solar systems

  • Then we describe all the components of the solar energy system in details, starting with solar panels to generate energy and then charge controller which keeps current and voltage levels of this energy controlled and then we store this energy in batteries and finally we describe inverters which convert the DC into AC Current Used by the client…’

  • And the fun part starts here in the design process, where we will design both a battery-based system and on grid system.

  • Next, You will learn to design a full solar energy system using Microsoft Excel Software.

  • Finally, You will use PVsyst software for your solar energy design.

As soon as you click “take this course button” you get:

  1. Lifetime access to the course.

  2. All the future updates I will be uploading.

  3. Access to the student forum (where you can ask me any questions you have along the way and engage with other students).

  4. Make it an absolute risk-free program, you can always take advantage Udemy’s no questions asked 30-day money-back guarantee.

  5. Upon finishing the course you get a "certificate of completion".



Who this course is for:

  • High school students wanting to become solar energy engineers.
  • University students who specialize in the Department of Electrical Engineering.
  • Solar engineers wanting to dive into the details of the production and installation process.
