Polysun Simulation Software: Training Courses for Solar Engineers in China
In order to meet the growing demand for solar engineers in China, the software manufacturer Vela Solaris together with its partner NERCRE and the Swiss university ZHAW, have launched a training program which will produce 400 solar engineers per year.
(PresseBox) - China?s need for professional solar engineers
China is a key region in the fight against greenhouse gas emission. It has a fast moving economy with a rising energy demand. Price trends and regulations force the Chinese industry to actively pursue a renewable energy strategy. A large number of renewable energy engineers will be needed in the near future for energy efficiency optimization and implementation of solar systems.
Project to establish an education program
In collaboration with its Chinese partner, National Engineering Research Centre for Renewable Energy NERCRE, the Swiss company Vela Solaris and the Center for Asia Business at Swiss university of applied sciences ZHAW started to establish an education program and a trainer?s network with the capability to educate engineers and planners in the renewable energy sector throughout China. The project is supported by the REPIC platform (www.repic.ch).
In a first step, NERCRE has recruited 10 teachers and jointly with Vela Solaris provided a training course for them. A second round of another 10 teachers will be recruited in the second project year and another 10 teachers in the third year. In parallel, refresher courses are offered to all teachers. The goal is to cover all Chinese provinces by this program. The teaching and certification scheme will produce at least 400 new solar engineers per year and a growing number of participants in the repetition courses.
The first introductory course successfully took place in Beijing in July 2015. NERCRE had selected 11 partners from 10 provinces, who took part in the course. The next course will follow in January 2016.
