Laboratory Facilities
The laboratory consists of two rooms:
Solar Energy Laboratory
Equipped with various generation and storage systems, as well as different PV module connection schemes, allowing students to analyze inverter operation, autonomous system performance, and electrical measurements.
With support from DTEK Renewables, the lab features bifacial solar panels, a Sungrow SH6.0RS 6kW hybrid inverter, and a SBR064 6.4kWh battery, ensuring backup power for classrooms 701 and 702. This setup supports research on bifacial module efficiency and provides hands-on experience with:
Solar irradiance sensors
Digital power testers for PV modules
Power quality analyzers
Wind Energy Lecture Hall
Designed for lectures and expert discussions on renewable energy topics.
