technology options Perform PV sizing calculations and create computer
models Produce accurate PV feasibility reports Create professional PV
construction drawings and specs that ensure smooth approval by building
officials, quality installations, &, maximum PV energy production
Coordinate with architectural design teams Manage PV construction
projects including bidding, installation oversight, and verification of
system performance
You also get course materials including: Workbook with course
topics, quick references &, calculation tools CD-R with pdf drawing
sets of various sample project types to use as reference for your
future designs Full-size drawing set for in-depth study during class
Instructors Jack West, Photovoltaic Systems Engineer, has been
designing PV systems for 17 years and is in high demand by many of the
Bay Area's top architects &, developers. Christina Manansala,
