This 40-page consultant report from the California Energy Commission provides tools and guidelines for installers ensure that residential photovoltaic power systems are properly specified and installed, resulting in a system that operates to its design potential. This document sets out key criteria that describe a quality system, and key design and installation considerations that should be met to...

This 32-page guide was developed by the National Energy Education Development (NEED) Project. NEED's hands-on solar kits help students learn more about solar energy and its applications. Students learn about photovoltaic cells, how they are made, and how they work through hands-on activities. Topics include Digital Multimeter, Series and Parallel Circuits, Calculation of Power and Circuits, Basic...

This lesson and lab activity was created by Dan Delorme and introduces students to the history and theory of photovoltaic (PV) cells. A laboratory investigation follows the lesson and asks students to use PV cells to power operating circuits that will be constructed in order to perform simple tasks. This lesson and lab includes the following sections: Lesson on Photovoltaic Cells, Introduction, A...

This lesson is adapted from PSU's GREATT lesson, Solar Power: The History, Chemistry, and Application of Photovoltaics. In this Maximum Power Point lesson, "students will investigate how to optimize the power output of a photovoltaic cell using a home-made gnomon stand. Data collected from students' investigations will be used to create current-voltage and power-voltage curves to determine the...
