This advanced course provides an in-depth look into the design process and considerations for grid-connected megawatt-scale PV systems, with an emphasis on ground-mounted systems. The first half of the course will discuss the design process from pre-project planning to best practices in installation, quality control, and commissioning. The second half of the course will use project case studies to highlight design considerations and choices for a variety of system configurations. This course will be taught by instructors with real project experience in developing, designing, installing, and commissioning megawatt-scale PV systems, so come take advantage!
Topics include: -Pre-project planning and site analysis, system design and optimization, layout and racking choices, inverter and transformer selection, medium voltage design and interconnection -Installation considerations for optimal long-term performance -2020 NEC requirements and large-scale PV -Multiple project case studies (trackers and fixed-tilt, string and central inverters, interconnection configurations, auxiliary power, and more)
