Descriptions
Exploring Renewable Energy Systems: What do you picture when you hear the term “renewable energy?” Do you picture fields of solar panels, giant windmills, or huge hydroelectric dams? These are all examples of large, grid-tied systems. In this course, we’ll go much smaller and focus on off-grid, standalone systems. We’ll examine the key components of photovoltaic, wind, and hydroelectric systems. We’ll examine photovoltaic, or PV, system components and the scientific laws that are essential to understanding how renewable energy systems work. We’ll discuss wind energy and low-head hydroelectric systems, focusing on small-scale implementations. As we explore these systems, we’ll focus on safety and regulatory agencies that guide proper system design. Over the course of the course, you’ll be able to apply what you’ve learned by conducting an energy audit to analyze electricity usage, identifying essential system components of small-scale systems, creating a budget for a small-scale system design, and creating a blueprint for implementing a small-scale system.
