Curriculum bento
A compact training system for real renewable energy work.
Each topic is taught through practical project logic, not passive theory. You learn the language, decisions, calculations, and handoffs that shape distributed renewable energy projects.
Distributed solar systems
Understand how rooftop, C&I, and community solar projects are structured.
Learn system components, sizing logic, design tradeoffs, grid interaction, and what project teams expect from entry-level contributors.
Microgrids + energy storage
See how DER assets work together as resilient energy systems.
Cover storage use cases, battery sizing context, microgrid architecture, load profiles, backup requirements, and dispatch fundamentals.
Financial modeling
Build the commercial view.
Work through CAPEX, OPEX, tariffs, savings, payback, IRR context, and how finance shapes project viability.
Project design fundamentals
Move from concept to scope.
Learn how teams translate client requirements, site context, loads, and technical assumptions into a workable project brief.
Policy + regulatory basics
Know the rules around the work.
Understand approvals, interconnection, net metering context, procurement structures, and the regulatory language used in DER projects.
Site assessment
Read the site.
Review roofs, land, shading, access, load demand, and red flags before design begins.
Case studies
Study real decisions.
Break down practical solar, storage, and microgrid scenarios with project constraints.
Hands-on workflows
Practice the process.
Use guided templates for scoping, sizing, feasibility, and stakeholder-ready summaries.
Hire-ready language
Speak like the industry.
Build confidence with DER vocabulary, role expectations, and interview discussion points.
When it matters
For the moments when renewable energy needs to stop feeling unfamiliar.
The module is designed for people who need structure, vocabulary, and practical confidence quickly—without spending months figuring out what to learn first.
Switching from engineering or operations
Bridge your existing technical experience into solar, storage, microgrids, project development, and energy operations roles.
Preparing for interviews
Learn how to discuss DER systems, project constraints, financial logic, and practical workflows with clarity.
Starting as a fresher
Build a foundation that makes you useful early—before your first renewable energy role or internship.
Working on solar or microgrid projects
Understand the moving parts behind site assessment, sizing, storage use cases, project economics, and execution handoffs.
Understanding DER business models
See how savings, resilience, tariffs, ownership models, and financing influence whether a project moves forward.
Contributing from day one
Become confident enough to review project information, ask better questions, and support real project teams.
