Photo : AHK Brazil Solar Payback, which promotes the use of Solar Heat for Industrial Processes (SHIP), is organising a three-day ‘Train-the-Trainer’ workshop in Pune, India from December 3 to 5, 2019. The objective behind organizing this training workshop is to enhance knowledge about the engineering challenges faced by planners, engineers & instructors in designing industrial solar heat applications. So, the Solar Payback is offering a series of Train-the-Trainer workshops. It had already successfully organized its first training workshop in Brazil, and now, its second workshop will be in India. Moreover, all the workshops will be conducted by solar experts from the German Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems, Europe’s largest applied solar research institute. Besides, the participation costs for the workshop, including all materials, lunch, coffee / tea breaks for the duration of the workshop, will be borne by the Solar Payback program itself, but it is limited to maximum 15 candidates, as confirmed by the sources. However, participants are responsible for booking and paying their own travel and accommodation expenses. Meanwhile, this three-days training program includes presentations about the following topics: Main components: Solar collectors, thermal storage and heat exchangers. Thermal Energy Efficiency Audits. Visit of test facility at the University of Pune. Optimisation of solar process heat design via system simulation. Investment analysis: Financial KPIs like NPV, Payback period, LCOH etc.´ Technical Tendering. Relevant commissioning procedures. Post completion of training, there will be a facility of optional visit of industrial site on December 6, 2019. Interested candidates can register online through clicking here.
