Convert Sunlight into Profits!
Position your business to profit from the growing demand for clean sources of energy. Central Piedmont Community College’s Center for Sustainability invites you to learn more about the business of photovoltaics by attending “Solar Photovoltaics for the New Clean Energy Economy.”
Intended for individuals who understand the basics of electricity and electric generation, this class will focus on detailed functionality of photovoltaic (PV) system components, and all common PV systems, from straight water pumping to stand alone battery based systems, and grid tie PV with and without batteries. Students will be able to design and size these systems, and see what is involved with interconnection to the utility.
