There are three lessons in this course. In lesson one, we start with modeling the roof based on site evaluation drawings. There is a roof geometry quiz at the end of this lesson that must be successfully completed before you can access lesson two. In lesson two, vents and other shading features and obstructions will be added to the roof. The opportunity for doing additional modeling will be provided in this lesson for those that want to learn how to add other features to enhance the roof and make it into a house. This additional modeling is entirely optional. This lesson also has a vent placement quiz that must be successfully completed before you can access lesson three. In lesson three, PV modules will be added to the roof. Also fire code roof access pathways and setbacks will be discussed, analyzed, and used when placing the PV modules. Additionally, other setbacks that are part of good design practice will also be used to determine where to place PV modules. The lesson, and course, will conclude with doing shading analysis to refine PV module placement and system size

This course covers National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 855 and UL9540 standards as they relate to design and installation considerations, as well as their intersection with the International Fire Code (IFC), International Residential Code (IRC)and NFPA 1 Fire Code. Overview of applicable fire codes Why fire codes matter ESS fire codes evolution over time (1997-2021) Fire code cycles across the U.S. Fire code requirements by cycle (IRC, IFC, NFPA 1) NFPA 855 requirements for ESS (residential and commercial) UL 9540 listing and UL 9540A testing Summary and wrap-up

This course covers important solar-plus-storage design and installation requirements for the most recent iterations of the National Electrical Code (NEC 2017 and 2020). The course is intended for industry professionals who are already familiar with grid-interactive systems but want to understand NEC requirements specific to solar-plus-storage systems as demand for energy storage continues to rise. Introduction to interactive solar and solar+storage systems AC- and DC-coupled energy storage systems Introduction to PV and ESS NEC Articles NEC Article 690 (Sections: 690.12, 690.15, 690.55, 690.56, 690.71) NEC Article 706 NEC Article 705 (Sections: 705.1, 705.13, 705.2, 705.5, 705.6, 705.65, 705.7) NEC Article 480 and Article 710 Common design issues and wrap-up

In this class, we'll review basic PV system types that use battery storage, the various use cases, and we'll take an in-depth look at what metrics are used to compare technologies. We'll discuss features of the most common battery chemistries currently used with PV systems and compare them. We'll look at how battery chemistry impacts battery bank sizing by reviewing a couple of design examples. Finally, we'll use a design example as the basis for a cost comparison of different battery technologies looking at both upfront and life cycle costs.

Common chemistries, including lead acid, lithium ion, and nickel iron, each have different installation, maintenance, storage, and transportation requirements that can lead to fatal consequences if not conducted properly. This 8-hr online course, produced under an OSHA Susan Harwood Training Grant, provides training on the hazards associated with each energy storage technology and the control measures to eliminate or mitigate those hazards. This training includes five lessons for a total of 4 contact training hours. Lessons includes presentations, field videos, interactive exercises, and quizzes. Lesson content includes Lesson 1: Introduction to the Course and OSHA requirements Lesson 2: Energy Storage Technologies- Energy storage basics, lead-acid energy storage systems, lithium-ion energy storage, other types of electrochemical energy storage systems Lesson 3: Energy Storage Safety Regulations- OSHA safety regulations, NFPA 70 (the National Electrical Code) and NFPA 70E (Standard for Electrical Safety in the Workplace) NFPA 855 (Installation of Stationary Energy Storage Systems), the International Residential Code (IRC) and the International Fire Code (IFC) Lesson 4: Electrical Hazards- Electrical shock hazards, electrical arc flash hazards, electrical PPE, electrical connection hazards Lesson 5: Other Hazards- Chemical hazards, fire hazards, gas hazards, physical hazards, storage and transportation hazards, temperature effects on batteries, working space and clean installations
