From technician to Energy Architect
Everything you need to know about the Fullstack Renewable Energy Developer program — what it is, what you'll master, the journey, and why it works.
One program. The entire renewable project lifecycle.
FRED is a practical, project-based program that teaches you to analyze energy data, design and simulate solar & hybrid systems, prove bankability, and manage assets — using the exact tools the industry runs on.
Real tools. Real datasets. Real bankability.
Every module is hands-on — you learn by building with the software and data used on live projects.
Energy Data Analysis
Clean and analyze load and generation data, build load profiles, and scale it with pandas.
Solar Resource & Design
Assess the solar resource and produce shading-aware, client-ready conceptual designs.
PV Simulation & Yield
Run bankable energy-yield simulations and read the loss diagram like an engineer.
Hybrid & Microgrid
Optimize solar-battery-generator-grid systems and prove the economics: LCOE, NPV, IRR.
Technical Asset Management
Monitor performance, track KPIs, plan O&M, and diagnose faults from live data.
End-to-End Project
Bring it together in a full techno-economic design for a real African site.
An 8-week, project-based curriculum
Sequenced like a real project: from understanding the data to proving the deal and running the asset.
Setup & Foundations
Install every tool, verify your environment, and cover the energy & electricity primer.
Energy Data Analysis
Load profiles and energy metrics in Excel, then at scale with Python & pandas.
Solar Design — Helioscope
Resource, shading and a client-ready conceptual design with a full report.
PV Simulation — PVsyst
Detailed yield, losses and Performance Ratio you can take to a lender.
Hybrid & Techno-economics
Build and optimize hybrids in HOMER Pro; interpret LCOE, NPV, IRR and payback.
Asset Management & Capstone
Monitoring, KPIs and O&M, then an end-to-end capstone and demo day.
Built to make you job- and project-ready
Hands-on, not theory
Guided labs, real datasets and worked examples in every single module.
Industry-standard tools
Helioscope, PVsyst and HOMER Pro — the software employers and clients expect.
Bankability skills
Learn to prove a project with LCOE, NPV, IRR and payback — the numbers that get funded.
Small, supported cohort
Limited for close facilitation, office hours and feedback.
Live Sessions, Peer-Review & Guided Solutions
Lessons, quizzes and solution manuals so you master each tool at your own pace.
