Lesson Activity
Activity Details
Assignment Assuming you are working on the installation of the PV systems and your task is to plan and manage the entire project from design to installation stages.

Part 1: For each scenario, prepare an Excel spreadsheet that specifies each task and timeline that should be followed to complete the design and installation of the PV system:
  1. Residential PV rooftop system (10 kW)
  2. Utility Scale ground mount PV system (5 MW)
  3. Share solar system (100 kW)
(Hint: use the flowchart of the PV project process as a guideline for the steps)

Part 2: Identify the safety procedures and equipment for each of the scenarios to align with OSHA regulations in regards to PV installation. (Hint: use the Required Reading "Green Job Hazards: Solar Energy," as a reference.)

Deliverable

Prepare a report showing Parts 1 and 2. The report is to be no more than three double-spaced pages in a 12 point font. Include the tables from the Excel spreadsheets.
