12 sections • 50 lectures • 7h 8m total length

Stand-Alone (Off-Grid)5:33
Learn about Stand Alone (off-grid) System. An off-grid solar system is designed for the power needs of mid- to large-size homes. Unlike grid-tied solar systems, off-grid systems have no connection to the utility grid and must make all the electricity necessary to power your home.
Grid Tie (On-Grid)3:24
The on-grid solar power system is a solar power generation system where it is connected to the utility grid.
Grid Tie with power backup (Hybrid)5:01
Hybrid solar systems generate power in the same way as a common grid-tie solar system but use special hybrid inverters and batteries to store energy for later use.

Solar Cells7:08
A solar cell, or photovoltaic cell, is an electrical device that converts the energy of light directly into electricity by the photovoltaic effect, which is a physical and chemical phenomenon.
Types of Solar Panels4:31
There are three major types of solar panels: monocrystalline, polycrystalline, and thin-film. Each type has its own unique advantages and disadvantages, and the solar panel type best suited for your installation will depend on factors specific to your own property and desired system characteristics.
Which Solar Panel is the best?9:45
the solar panel type best suited for your installation will depend on factors specific to your own property and desired system characteristics.
Types of Solar Panel Mountings3:52
Solar panels are designed to be easily and durably mounted to racks of different types, learn these different types through the tutorial.
Mixing and Matchine Solar Panels6:44
Though mixing different solar panels is not recommended, it's not forbidden and things would be ok as long as each panel's electrical parameters (voltage, wattage, amps) are carefully considered.

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.

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.
