This course supplies learners with the insights necessary for properly planning, and therefore successfully installing, a photovoltaic (PV) system per design specifications. It directs learners through the important steps of initial site inspection and evaluating appropriate locations for PV systems, and features unique elements of residential, small, industrial and utility-scale solar applications. The course probes key design concerns – including load, efficiency, and mechanical and electrical design – as well as aesthetics and tools for planning. Learners experiment with calculations needed to design a PV system, exercising newly gained knowledge about site selection, layout, code compliance, system components, and wire sizing.

It is an excellent course and excellent instructor but the course can be even better, if more explanation on a board added to the course's materials.
Interesting course, had a lot of useful information.
I would like to have access or extract from the codes or some blocked sites for the information which are being used for calculations.
The courses are so good and well characterized. You used pictures and videos in their lectures which made it more understandable.Thank you
It's good for basic calculations and quite comprehensive in the system design. The only thing that isn't comprehensive enough is the lecture explanations.
