1 DEPLOYMENT OF ROOFTOP PHOTOVOLTAIC PROJECTS FEASIBILITY, CHALLENGES AND BUSINESS MODELS APRIL 2019, KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA Testimonial from Past Participants The training was well organized. Trainer has good knowledge about the subject. - Head of Construction, Installing and Commissioning, Altaaqa Alternative Solutions Co. Ltd The trainer is knowledgeable and able to deliver clear and in-depth technical details and aspects of every topics discussed during the course. The course is very comprehensive, covering different phases of building a utility scale PV plant. Director, Energy Market Authority Expert Course Faculty Leader Senior Consultant at the PI-Photovoltaik Institut Berlin AG (PI Berlin AG) based in Berlin, Germany. He has 10 years of experience in deployment of roof top and multi-mw grid-connected PV systems. A very diversified and eye-widening course. It has provided me the opportunity to enhance my rooftop PV knowledge. I will be sharing some key points with my colleagues after this course and surely, everyone will be benefit. - Environmental Engineer, The Hongkong Electric Company Limited In Collaboration With Another Quality Training By

2 About This Training Course This course will provide a first-hand comprehensive discussion of the most relevant topics of the different stages across the value chain of a roof top grid-connected solar PV project. Topics like installation standards, commissioning practices, assessment of rooftop suitability, benefits and challenges of PV development, building integrated PV or the various business models in roof top deployment will be highlighted, focusing specifically on the challenges and best practices in order to ensure a clear understanding of what leads to a good or a poor result. The content of the course not only focuses on technical aspects, it illustrates also the interface between technical concepts and commercial consequences bringing utilities, developers and system integrators to a common ground. This course contains the knowhow of PV expertise acquired over almost one decade of intensive activities in mature and nascent markets in the Americas, Asia and Europe. Learning Outcomes This course will be valuable to participants involved in any of the different stages of the value chain providing a global understanding of the deployment of roof top PV projects. Beginning with introductory aspects, the instructor will lead the participant through the natural course of PV projects including references to real projects keeping a balanced mix between PV theory, first hand practical lessons, commercial and academic topics. Through this multi-perspective approach, the participant will gain a better understanding of the overall picture of the rooftop PV deployment, in particular: Different approaches for evaluating the suitability of a roof for PV installation Best practices to be applied during installation and commissioning of roof top PV plants Project organigram of a PV project Understanding of the various challenges affecting PV plants in general and in the SE-Asian region Requirements and models of building integrated PV Health and Safety during roof top PV installation Floating solar as an alternative to space scarcity Principles and dimensioning of storage systems for roof-top PV plants Understanding the various business models in roof top PV deployment Basics in regards to the interface between the distribution system operator and the plant owner Application of some of the above mentioned aspects in real case studies Who Should Attend There are no prerequisites to attend this course but a basic knowledge of PV technology and PV systems will help to increase the understanding of the content shared during the 3 days of instruction.
