Solar Power Project – A Hands On Workshop

Are you interested in Solar Energy? Would you like to learn how to build Solar Panels from scratch and help install them on remote rural schools that don’t have access to electricity? Are you interested in experiencing all this in one of the world’s most biodiverse and pristine jungles? Then the Solar Power Project – A Hands On Workshop on the Osa Peninsula in Costa Rica is exactly what you are looking for.

You as a participant will gain an understanding of the basic engineering principles of photovoltaic power during our theory lessons throughout the workshop. During our hands-on workshop part you’ll learn how solar panels are built and maintained, assemble all the solar panel parts, install solar panels, and educate the community. You’ll also receive some amazing guest-lectures on topics related to renewable energies in Costa Rica, and more in depth economic and solar power analysis.

June 17th – July 1st 2017.
The project is $1200 for 2 weeks
