Powered by (4)

Credit hours: +15 hours training program

Training Type: online training program (zoom platform)

Language: Arabic (with technical terms and materials in English)

This 15-hour course is designed to provide engineers, students, and managers with a deep dive into the world of wind energy. Through a well-structured curriculum, you'll explore essential topics such as the types of wind turbines, their components, wind measurement techniques, and the economics of wind farm operations.

A key highlight of the course is a real-world example, where you will design and layout a 50MW wind farm, learning how to select turbine sizes, plan layouts, and calculate annual energy production. Additionally, you’ll get a brief but engaging VR experience that will give you a visual tour of wind turbines and components, adding an interactive dimension to your learning.
Prepare to immerse yourself in the knowledge and skills needed to navigate the future of wind energy!
