Description

This course caters to Engineers, Technicians, Facilities Managers, Energy Professionals, Architects and others who are interested in enhancing their understanding of solar renewable energy, and would like to learn about methods, best practices and strategies for selection of the most suitable solar renewable energy alternative, with technical, geographic and financial feasibility in mind.

Participants are primed by introduction to a few important fundamentals of energy, energy facts, and the “grid” to set the tone for better comparison of current source of energy with optimal renewable energy alternative, solar or non-solar.

Current footprint and specific applications of major solar renewable energy systems are examined. Since renewable energy storage is gaining increased importance - various proven energy storage technologies are explored.

Hybrid, Off-Grid, solar and wind renewable energy systems are discussed. Utilization of solar light in day lighting applications is covered. Participants are apprised of major solar energy installations currently in operation and some that are work-in-process.

Who Should Attend

This course is ideal for engineers, technicians, facilities managers, energy professionals, and architects who are keen on enhancing their understanding of solar renewable energy. It is also suited for anyone interested in learning about methods, best practices, and strategies for selecting the most suitable solar renewable energy alternatives, taking into account technical, geographic, and financial feasibility. Additionally, individuals seeking to compare current energy sources with optimal renewable alternatives and those looking to explore the applications and benefits of solar energy systems and storage technologies will find this course highly beneficial.
