Exchange of knowledge and know-how on solar technologies between Germany, Belgium and India - Capacity building - November 2006
The objectives of the project are to develop expert man-power for solar industry for installation of solar thermal as well as photovoltaic systems thus facilitating increase of market for solar technologies in India. The project will provide tools and methodology for capacity building in solar technologies. The project aims to provide practical know-how to solar engineers, technicians and mechanics in India to enhance their skills in planning, design and installation of systems and their maintenance. The know-how transfer is proposed in the form of curriculum development and training of solar engineers and technicians and mechanics which will ensure
a) Quality performance and long life of solar thermal as well as photovoltaic systems
b) Help in building the confidence of consumers and public at large in the use of solar energy for heating and electricity production and therefore help increasing the market for solar technologies
c) Effectively help the Indian Government in replacing the fossil energy by solar energy to a reasonable extent resulting in reducing green house gas emissions from the energy supply systems.
This is a project undertaken by The Solar Institute, Juelich, Germany sponsored by the European Union under Economic Cross Cultural Programme (ECCP) - India Europe Aid/116307/C/G and the following are the other partners in the project:
i. Germany: Aachen University of Applied Sciences, Aachen (AcUAS)
ii. Germany: Handwerkskammer Aachen (Chamber of Handicraft), Aachen, (HWK AC)
iii. Belgium: Zentrum fur Aus-und Weiterbildung des Mittelstands, Eupen (ZAWM)
iv. India: The Energy and Resource Institute
Main activities for TERI in the project are:
1. Collection of data about Solar Thermal Industry in India
2. Collection of data about Photovoltaic Industry in India
3. Provide information on Indian Energy Policy on Solar Energy Utilisation
4. Collection of details on existing curriculum/installation instructions about solar hot water and photovoltaic systems
5. Analysis of installed solar hot water and PV systems
6. Associate with the partners in establishing the curriculum and development of the course material
7. Setting up systems and tools for training
8. Selection of participants for training
9.Associate with the partners for conducting the training programme in TERI-SRC, Bangalore
Four courses of training programme (i) Solar PV systems for Mechanics, ii) Solar PV systems for Engineers, iii) Solar thermal systems for Mechanics and iv) Solar thermal systems for Engineers) are scheduled to be held at TER-SRC, Bangalore, during November 2006.
