The course begins with an introduction to the physics and potential of solar radiation, its distribution over time, and its dependence on geography. This is followed by an overview of photovoltaics (PV) technology and the manufacturing of PV cells . The structure and function of the most important components in a PV system, such as PV modules, inverters, and batteries, are discussed. In the next step, system concepts for grid-connected and stand-alone installations are addressed along with the manual and computational dimensioning of these systems . The course concludes with instruction on the mounting and installation of PV systems and on methods for economic and environmental assessments of PV systems.
Literature lists are published at the latest one month ahead of the course start date.

Mandatory online meetings will be held according to the schedule.
Surf on the Internet, read and send emails, use a word-processing programme (e.g. Word). Connect a camera and headphones to the computer and install a programme using instructions.
Access to a computer (Not a mini pc, tablet or similar) that is not older than three years (or equivalent) and broadband connection, at least 1 Mbit/s (not mobile broadband, because mobile broadband can vary considerably in speed).
Higher rate of web-based communication where our learning platform (Learn/Canvas) is a natural element of the course. Web-based meetings with sound and image where simple presentations can be held. Lectures can be broadcast live or can alternatively be made available afterwards online.
Literature lists are published at the latest one month ahead of the course start date.
