The energy situation and the ever growing energy demand and cost increase as well as the local energy problems caused by lack of technology knowledge force us to investigate following questions. Which energy source is suitable and affordable to cover the energy demand for Africa population today and in the future ?

Which knowledge and technology do we really need to be able to run our solar energy business and participate directly to energy independency of Africa, as solar energy is infinite, versatile and available everywhere ?

Gain a foundational understanding of solar energy principles and important solar terms with this MODUL A01 course. This Fundamentals Solar Training course introduces solar energy and photovoltaics, electricity, system sizing principles and PV array electrical & mechanical design.

None! Start here & preparing yourself for a career in renewable energy!

• Certificate to  MT-GE Solar Expert after successfully validation of Exams

• PV Markets & Applications
• the principles of photovoltaic power generation.
• About peak-power, one of the main characteristics of photovoltaic panels.
• This module will also go through the importance of photovoltaic panel positioning and the effects of shadows.
• You will become familiar with the major components of a photovoltaic installation, namely: solar panels, batteries, charge controllers and inverters.
• All of these electrical devices are connected in a specific way and constitute the off-grid photovoltaic installation architecture.
• to be able to size a photovoltaic installation and battery capacity given the specifications of a school’s energy needs in a country of your choice.
• By assessing the energy needs of a building and collecting information about the electrical devices in use, you will learn how to calculate the energy consumption.
• Energy consumption and irradiation values will allow you to size the photovoltaic installation in terms of both size and configuration (number of panels in series and parallel).
• The battery sizing will consist of determining the capacity required and the configuration of the batteries to answer the need of the desired autonomy.
• At the end of this module, you will a general knowledge know in which solution best suits the needs of the client and the steps that you need to follow when responding to a client demand.
