Descriptions
Solar Energy System Design, Solar Energy System Design builds upon the introduction to PV systems from Solar Energy Basics to focus on the actual design of photovoltaic systems. You will learn how to calculate the solar resource for a specific location, estimate the electrical load of a building, and select appropriate components including modules, inverters, and battery storage. The course guides you through sizing a complete system, analyzing its performance, and understanding grid-tied, standalone, and hybrid configurations.
By completing this course, you will gain hands-on experience in using professional tools and calculations to design reliable and cost-effective solar energy systems. The curriculum emphasizes practical application, allowing you to estimate energy production, perform financial analysis, and address real-world installation constraints. This knowledge prepares you to design functional residential and commercial solar installations and contribute to the transition to clean energy.
What you’ll learn
- Evaluate the solar resource at any location using databases and mathematical models.
- Size and design stand-alone, grid-tied, and hybrid photovoltaic (PV) systems.
- Select appropriate system components like PV modules, inverters, and battery storage.
- Estimate the annual energy yield of a designed system under real-world conditions.
- Perform basic life-cycle cost analysis and economic evaluations for solar projects.
Who this course is for
- Aspiring solar system designers, field technicians, and engineers.
- Students in environmental science, mechanical, or electrical engineering fields.
- Homeowners or business owners looking to design their own PV installations.
- Professionals in the green energy sector wanting to update their technical design skills.
