PV Solar Training Courses

Solar Power Fundamentals Training Courses
For those who are new to the solar sector, we offer courses that teach the basics of solar energy. You will gain a clear understanding of how photovoltaic systems work, what components they consist of, and how solar energy fits into the wider energy transition. These entry-level courses are designed to build a strong foundation – no prior technical knowledge required. Step by step, you’ll develop the confidence to move towards more advanced solar design and engineering topics.

PV Solar Engineering Training Courses
Our PV Solar Engineering courses provide a solid technical foundation for designing and operating solar systems. You will learn about system components, electrical design, performance analysis, and safety standards. These courses are ideal for those who want to deepen their engineering skills and work on professional PV projects.

PV Solar Design Training Courses
In our PV Solar Design courses, you’ll master the process of planning and configuring solar systems. From site assessment and system sizing to software-based simulations and layout, you will gain practical skills to create efficient and reliable solar designs that meet real-world requirements.

PV Solar Project Management Training Courses
Successful solar projects depend on more than just technical know-how. Our PV Solar Project Management courses combine technical understanding with project planning, budgeting, and risk management. Learn how to deliver solar projects on time and within budget, while coordinating stakeholders and ensuring quality.

Solar PV Grid-Connected Training Courses
Grid-connected solar systems are the backbone of modern energy supply. This course covers system design, grid integration requirements, and performance optimization. Participants will understand how to connect PV systems to national grids and ensure compliance with international standards.

Solar PV Off-Grid Training Courses
For regions without reliable grid access, off-grid solar solutions provide energy independence. In this course, you’ll explore system sizing, battery integration, and hybrid concepts for rural electrification and standalone applications. Practical examples will show how off-grid solar can make a lasting impact.

Minigrids, Microgrids, Hybrid Systems Training Courses
Our courses on minigrids, microgrids, and hybrid systems highlight innovative solutions for decentralized energy supply. You’ll learn how to design and manage systems that combine solar with storage, diesel, or other renewable sources, ensuring reliable power for communities and businesses worldwide.

In cooperation with universities, we offer qualified renewable energy degree programmes in which students can acquire an MBM Green Finance or an MBA Renewables while on the job or full-time. We work hand-in-hand with universities, associations, and institutions, and develop our content in collaboration with leading industry experts. From our training centre in Berlin, we deliver both online and hands-on learning experiences – always with a focus on real-world application and global relevance.

In-person sustainable energy training
Our Green Energy Summer School takes place once a year at our Renewable Energy Training Centre in the heart of Berlin. As well as an introduction to renewable energy, we set different focus points each year according to recent developments in energy technology.

Blended learning for renewable energy
Some of our green energy training courses comprise an online and an in-person element. For example, participants of the Green Energy Finance Training course can attend a one-week renewable energy class in Berlin after completing the six-month online training programme.

Green Energy Online Courses
Choose from around 40 different renewable energy online courses. The shortest programmes last four weeks and can be booked at any time. They provide expert knowledge on subjects such as electricity grids, grid integration of renewables, battery energy storage, carbon pricing and PPAs. More extensive programmes last six months and start twice per year. These cover topics such as photovoltaics, wind power, green hydrogen, green energy finance, solar thermal and bioenergy. All of these green energy courses are guided by expert trainers. Our experts are available to assist you in the moderated discussion forums and virtual live classrooms, which form an integral part of these online courses.
