This course under ADD-ALL’s Continuing Academic Development track (CAD) will give you a detailed overview of the solar energy resource and photovoltaic approaches to conversion to electricity.

You will also learn the physics and fabrication of silicon solar cells, including a discourse on the trade-offs between cost, manufacture unpredictability, performance, economics, technical and societal issues that must be considered and managed in the design of photovoltaic systems. Computer modelling of these systems will be utilized to strengthen understanding and acquire a familiarity with engineering tools for PV system design.

Exposure and actual implementation of the designed micro-scale Solar-PV technology will be the highlight of this course!
