Abstract
System Advisor Model (SAM) developed by NREL (National Renewable Energy Lab) are used in modeling different types of renewable energy systems. Due to increase in demand of renewable energy sources (RES) the demand of engineers proficient in modeling RES has been growing. However, typical engineering curriculum focuses more on fundamental principles and other applications, not covering RES modeling. Employers desire and students yearn for hands-on, real-world, job read skills and proficiency. This study has explored and developed educational module for Large PV farms that could be incorporated into engineering courses. Such module(s) would help student awareness, understanding and proficiency to enable contribution within a growing area of demand within the job market.
