Course Description
Hello, Dear Solar Enthusiast!
I welcome you to this Solar Energy course, designed with the goal to share the learning for the beginners of Solar Energy.
Let me share with you that I have tried to develop this course keeping in mind that a beginner could learn the technicality of the Solar field in a simpler and easier manner. I have tried to all the aspects of the Solar plants which include Technicals, Financial calculations, Financial modelling, Net Metering, Different types of Installations, Monitoring etc. Some of these aspects are generally missed in the other courses. I understand how difficult it is sometimes to explain the technical aspects, therefore I have tried to take the help of analogies and simple to relate examples and calculations for developing an easier understanding of the complex technicalities.
Being working as a Solar Energy consultant and executed approximately 50 projects with an aggregated capacity of 4000 kWp or 4 MWp, I have been able to gain useful experience and insights. I have tried to pour all my experience into this course, hope this would be valuable.
Examples from the industrial experience coupled with tips and thumb rules, average calculation formulae etc would really equip the viewer to gain a great command and grip. After, taking this course, a very detailed understanding of all the fundamentals involving Technicals, financial, execution, would help in building up the required confidence for taking up Solar projects or assignments in this field.
Be ready to cover tons of topics in the Solar field to charge yourself for your Solar expertise. We will be covering topics such as-
Basic fundamentals of Solar PV Energy!
Calculating the contribution of the Solar Plants for curbing carbon emission.
Comparison of Grid-Tie vs. Off-Gris PV systems
What are the various components of a Solar PV system, how they function?
Thumb rules and formulas on your tips for evaluating any solar plant and carry forward the necessary plannings.
How to size the Solar plant, how to calculate the Savings and ROI period of your solar plants.
How to choose the best financial model for your solar plant, Comparative of different financial models.
Understand the net metering and calculate the bills from import and export readings.
Role of monitoring in increasing the output of the Solar Plant.
This course has been designed for: anyone who wants to explore the ins and outs of Solar PV Energy. The course has been designed in such a way that it is suitable for beginners and some of the detailed calculations and concepts would benefit the advanced learners as well. I am sure, it will also prove awesome for experienced Solar Professionals who want to enhance their skills and increment knowledge as some of the concepts presented here are not shared in other equivalent courses. You would see them once you go through the course.
And finally, if you are looking to enhance your knowledge in a comprehensive manner, Switch this Course On! Yes, Take the course and let the lamp of knowledge brighten your career and endeavours. Best wishes to you.
Practising as a consultant in the solar field, I would share more in the coming days and I do wish to add the experience as upgraded content and I look forward to keeping updating the content with the latest developments.

Excellent way of explaining every thing about solar system.The accent and vocubalary used is very percieivable particulary for non native english like me.sardar gi has done great work and research .The dedication .devotion and anticipation of sardar gi was marvellous .keep up sardar gi with the same pace .

I would recommend this course for someone who is a beginner and wants to explore the solar renewable industry. It is also highly recommended for those who are looking to know the importance of clean energy and wants to implement them through installation of solar panels in their home or any commercial places. Practice sheets provided in this course were helpful to get a clear picture of how installation is done from scratch. This course is completely theoretical based with real time examples (absolutely for a solar beginner).

I really like this course. The topics are presented in an accessible and easy-to-understand way. Everything is in its place. I have completed many trainings and watched a lot of instructional videos. I have a small photovoltaic farm that I made myself, which I use and maintain. I am eagerly awaiting your next training courses. Good job, and I wish you success.

Could be better if the course maker could add some maths regarding the design of the solar panels. Overall, the course is good enough for beginners. However, I think that adding some difficult questions and maths along with a detailed structure of different kinds of solar panels could help the students learn better about solar energy harvesting.

This is an exciting course; everyone needs to join this to understand the solar benefits. Every lecture was delivered in an easy manner, and practice assignments helped to understand it better. Quizzes are slight but helpful in revising the section. The learnings of this course will help me in my research.

It has refreshened my basic knowledge and on the whole it is for good learning and Instructor's method of explanation is excellent and comfortable. Keep it up It has added to my knowledge of Tilt angle , space requirements for different structure mounted solar Panels Plants. Good Job and added to my over all knowledge

thank you sir for these amazing segments and i learned a lot about my field here as i am a student of renewable energy field. its very helpful to brush my basics. i look forward for more advance course in this field from you sir. thank you udit kumar

The contents of the subject is good as introduction but with a lot of sales focus. The back round music is annoying . The presenter is keep repeating at the end of each segment (Thank you for lessening ICU in the next ..!!!) . Questions in the quiz of monitoring are actually questions for the next one which is cleaning. Error in segment 17 the number is 12,000 but the presenter keep saying 1200.
By Himanshu Baraskar on 11/17/2021
Yes! I am like this entire course because it includes all the entire information and aspects of Solar Energy, Such that how it can be very useful resources which can be used for the power generation and the most important thing is by using solar energy we are contributing our responsibilities towards the environment and reducing the dependency on coal.
