The 10-day design course, which was held at Green Energy Research Centre, Universiti Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam, from 15 to 26 January 2018, is one of the renewable energy related competency courses organised by SEDA for system designers, chargemen and wiremen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the review of basic electricity and solar engineering at the beginning, the course comprehensively covered on OGPV system design such as its principles, components selection and sizing, installation, testing, commissioning and acceptance test. The course ended with theoretical and practical competency examination sessions. To be successfully awarded as a competent OGPV system designer, participants were compulsorily required to pass both examinations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The design course was partially sponsored by IVAT as its continual practices of encouraging its staff to attend such career-related courses. IVAT wishes Dr. Zulkarnain all the best and hopes he would contribute more on renewable energy related activity to the institute as well as the community.<br>More information about the SEDA courses can be found at http:\/\/www.seda.gov.my <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"687\" height=\"273\" src=\"https:\/\/research.utm.my\/ivatdev\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/77\/2023\/10\/SEDA-OGPV1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7223\" srcset=\"https:\/\/research.utm.my\/ivatdev\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/77\/2023\/10\/SEDA-OGPV1.jpg 687w, https:\/\/research.utm.my\/ivatdev\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/77\/2023\/10\/SEDA-OGPV1-480x191.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 687px, 100vw\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Dr. Zulkarnain (leftmost) with the participants during the practical OGPV session of testing and commissioning.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"687\" height=\"265\" src=\"https:\/\/research.utm.my\/ivatdev\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/77\/2023\/10\/SEDA-OGPV2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7224\" srcset=\"https:\/\/research.utm.my\/ivatdev\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/77\/2023\/10\/SEDA-OGPV2.jpg 687w, https:\/\/research.utm.my\/ivatdev\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/77\/2023\/10\/SEDA-OGPV2-480x185.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 687px, 100vw\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Group photo with the Director of Renewable Energy Technology of SEDA, Mrs. Azah Ahmad (seventh from left) and the trainers during the design course.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>By Dr. Zulkarnain Ahmad Noorden, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>JOHOR BAHRU, 26 February 2018 \u2013 Dr. Zulkarnain Ahmad Noorden successfully passed the off-grid photovoltaic (OGPV) competency design course organised by Sustainable Energy Development Authority (SEDA) Malaysia.
