Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA)’s Innovation Centre is set to host the fourth batch of the ‘Integrated Solar PV System Designer’ training on solar PV systems and plants, design methods, installation, testing and maintenance, and solar PV project evaluation.
The training is organised in collaboration with TUV Rheinland Academy to develop technical competencies in solar and renewable energy.
Those who complete the training and pass the final test receive professional certificates in designing and installing solar energy systems.
It was shared that the centre serves as a platform for refining professional competencies and technical expertise in the fields of sustainability, energy efficiency, and clean and renewable energy.
The last three rounds of the ‘Integrated Solar Photovoltaic (PV) System Designer’ received 120 applications and resulted in the graduation of 65 participants.
The fourth batch will commence in July 2024 at the Innovation Centre in the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park.
The training aims to expand the trainees’ knowledge about the principles of Photovoltaic (PV) System, Standard IEC 60364-7-712: Electrical installations and protection against electric shock; and Standard IEC 62446: Photovoltaic (PV) Systems – Requirements for testing, documentation and maintenance.
Participants will also learn about the principles of PV Plant Design, the economic evaluation of PV design, the basic ability to design and configure PV components for Low Voltage on-grid and off-grid systems and calculate PV system sizing for on-grid and off-grid.
