Overview: 

This course outline, Renewable Energy, Energy Economics and Finance is designed and tailor-made for Power Distribution companies which are more into solar other than on-shore and off-shore wind turbines. The training is focused solar Photovoltaic (PV) assessment, sizing, batteries, installation, Financing, Solar Operations and Maintenance (O&M), integration and electric vehicles (EV)s.

This training programme intended to impact knowledge in Renewable Energy and Energy efficiency, Energy Auditing and the legalities involved in this area. Solar equipment, components, and systems are large factors in a solar investment. It further seeks to provide valuable green energy knowledge for decision makers at managerial level whether to invest in solar systems or not, it goes on to equip technical staff on the practicalities in system sizing, installation and commissioning and maintenance

In this training workshop ATI provides deepening insights on Solar Photovoltaic systems techno economic evaluation. The training aims to provide esteemed delegates with knowledge ranging from theory of Photovoltaic systems, Energy conversion process, design and sizing the main Solar System components, practical installation and financial evaluation of the same.
