The course deals with electricity production using photovoltaic modules in off-grid, grid-connected and hybrid systems, which also include other types of electricity generators, especially wind power and diesel generators. The course comprises the sizing and designing of components and complete PV and hybrid systems. The students will use the computer simulation and design programmes PVsyst and Homer. The final segment of the course will cover system analysis and evaluations. Project planning will also be covered in portions of the course.
