Yield Assessment, Design and Monitoring of Solar Photovoltaic Power Plants – For Bankable System Simulations Using PVsyst Software

By the end of this 3 days training course, participants will be able to:

• Estimate annual energy production from a solar photovoltaic system with confidence – as crucial input into financial model.
• Communicating the effects of shading caused by horizon or nearby obstacles such as houses or other rows of solar panels on the output of the system.
• Be able to optimise the energy yield of a photovoltaic system by changing the geometry or the electrical configuration of the system.
• Set performance guarantees based on PVsyst that are measurable.

This course will provide comprehensive learning resources, including course materials for future reference. Each topic will commence with a clearly defined intended learning outcome (LO). The learning experience will be enriched through diverse activities such as quizzes, and assessments, ensuring engagement and understanding. Besides supplementing the core material, participants will have access to additional resources like articles, case studies, and tools. The course structure incorporates interactive elements, such as group discussions, case studies, and practical exercises, enhancing hands-on learning experiences. Q&A sessions will provide opportunities for clarifications and deeper understanding.

Participants should have a PVsyst license for one unique device. Participants are advised not to share the software. If participants do not have access to a PVsyst license, they can download a trial license, which will be valid for 30 days. Therefore, participants must ensure that they downloaded the trial version before the training course date. In addition, participants are encouraged to use Microsoft Excel – 2021 for Windows as versions pre 2019 will not work.
