Energy Yield of Renewable Energy Technologies

This virtual classroom introduces the methods and parameters used to calculate energy yield for photovoltaic (PV) and wind energy systems. Participants will explore the key factors that influence PV energy output, including solar irradiation, system size, and performance ratio, and learn how various losses are identified and factored into yield estimates. The session also covers wind energy, exploring how yield is calculated using wind speed distributions and turbine power curves, and how losses such as wake effects and grid losses are accounted for.

The session is delivered synchronously online, with later access to the recording and slides shared during the class. A digital certificate of participation will be issued within 48 hours after the class and sent by email.

If a cancellation is needed, only allowed until 1 week in advance.

Level: beginner/intermediate
