The laboratory is focused on the operational characteristics of renewable energy sources, their efficient and correct system integration, including evaluation, determination and verification of the required parameters. Students have the opportunity to study the basic principles of design and functionality of photovoltaic, wind and storage systems. Within this laboratory, the subject of Low Power Energy Sources is taught and bachelor's and master's theses are also prepared.
Main activities
- Operational diagnostics of operating properties of photovoltaic panels.
- Development and research of hybrid photovoltaic systems with electric energy storage.
