Udemy – Design Your Own Off-Grid Solar System: A Step-by-Step Guide 2024-11

Design Your Own Off-Grid Solar System: A Step-by-Step Guide. This course provides a clear and complete path to learning how to design and build an off-grid solar power system. Taught by Jesse Gorter, a seasoned engineer with over a decade of experience in renewable energy, the course is delivered in an innovative Person-In-Presentation (PIP) format, where the instructor is present alongside dynamic slides, making learning an engaging experience rather than a monotonous lecture. The course content is divided into three main sections: Generation, Storage, and Consumption, each covering three key topics. The Generation section examines the types of solar panels, generators, and alternators. The Storage section covers batteries, charge controllers, and basic electrical principles. The final section covers inverters, wiring principles, and circuit protections such as fuses and breakers. Each topic is taught through concise and useful video tutorials, followed by an optional short quiz to assess comprehension. This structure ensures that upon completion of the course, you will have acquired the comprehensive and practical knowledge necessary to design an off-grid system to suit your specific needs.
