About

This Small-Scale PV Systems with Electrical Storage course at Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) provides you with practical experience with photovoltaic (PV) modules in small systems.

Overview

Are you familiar with the theory of  solar cells and modules, with different PV system configurations and topologies, with the behavior of different PV system components, and with the principles of operation of electronic converters and maximum power point trackers (MPPT)?

Then in this Small-Scale PV Systems with Electrical Storage course at Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) you will see – in real time – how all these characteristics and factors affect the operation of a small photovoltaic system.

What You'll Learn

After conducting experiments in this course you will be able to::

  • Characterize the performance of PV modules and its dependence on light intensity, module tilt, shading, and season.
  • Set up small PV systems and understand the operation of different system configurations and topologies, as well as noting the effects of partial shading and the operation of bypass diodes.
  • Appreciate the differences between off-grid and grid-connected PV systems and the behavior of all their components and assess the performance of entire systems and their components;.
  • Analyze the performance of DC-DC converters and build and assess the principles of operation behind maximum power point trackers.

Programme Structure

This course includes 4 parts: 
  • PV Module Characteristics
  • PV Module Configurations and Systems
  • Off-Grid and Grid-Connected PV Systems
  • DC-DC Converters and Maximum Power Point Trackers
