« Between 2030 and 2050, 10-30% of global energy demand will be covered by solar photovoltaics. Right now we are in an embryonic state compared to where we are heading in some cases
decades " .

Welcome to Solar Energy!

A professional development course for engineers by iPolytek

In this course we answer the following questions:

1. What is the role of solar energy in global energy supply today?
2. What will be its role in the future?
3. How does solar energy compare in size to other energy sources?
4. How do solar cells produce electricity?
5. How efficient are solar cells today?
6. How do you size a solar photovoltaic system?
7. How much does a solar power plant cost?
