Description
As the world is developing at the same time the need for energy is also increasing. Fossil-Fuels are one topmost source by which we are generating energy for our needs. As a result, global warming is also increasing. So we found an important way by which we can deal with high demands of energy as well as we can keep our atmosphere clean. Renewable energy is the best form of energy that we can use to reduce global warming as well as carbon footprint.
In this course, you will learn about Renewable Energy as well as you will be getting a good overview of Solar Energy and Photovoltaics.
Topics to be covered:
- Introduction to Renewable Energy
- Types of Renewable Energy
- Photovoltaics (PV)
- Solar Cells and Solar Panels
- Components used to design a PV system
- On-Grid and Off-Grid System
What you will Learn?
At the end of this course,
- You can distinguish between different types of Renewable Energy resources.
- You can understand the working of a PV cell
- You can distinguish between different types of PV cells and modules
- You can determine different types of components used for PV system designing
- You can distinguish between On-Grid and Off-Grid System
- You will be ready to select the components required for PV System Designing
