Skills to be acquired in this module

After successful completion of the module students should be able to:

  • categorize and feature different PV systems
  • PV on-grid, PV off-grid / stand alone, PV-pumping,
  • PV-hybrid by their setup and by standard quality indicators.
  • explain the operation principles of the listed PV systems
  • explain concepts behind PV system design
  • design a photovoltaic system by a simulation software (SAM, PVLib,…)
  • be aware of the limitation of design method
  • discuss energy flow diagrams of PV systems
  • describe in depth involved balance of system components e.g. inverter, charge controllers,    cabling or generator stand
  • add storage (battery) to PV systems simulation
  • financial analysis
