TREE Success Stories
Ismail Yusuf, Indonesia
In December 2009 Ismail Yusuf installed a photovoltaic off -grid power plant. It was a pilot project in an isolated area, with a capacity of 400 Wp. They have encouraged local people to participate in the project and trained them so that they can maintain the system by themselves.
Osvaldo Bustamante, Chile
Osvaldo Bustamante has implemented thermal central heating project supported by solar collectors and have been trying to spread the word about REs in the country. They also provide advice to building project on solar cogeneration, and the use of absorption chillers.
Henning Holm, South Africa
Henning Holm has been doing strategic energy planning, energy management and passive design for two universities and a bank. Also he connected two PV systems to the grid since the training. The RENAC course was intended to improve the quality of the service and to ensure that they are on the cutting edge of the industry.
Titipong Samakpong, Thailand
Since the seminar I have been very active with PV projects. For example, I worked as a consultant on a 5 MW on-grid PV project in Thailand. My consultancy tasks included site identificati on, measuring solar irradiati on and meteorological data at the site, electrical layout and structural design as well as feasibility. Now the project is under construction and expected to come online later this year. This has been possible thanks to the knowledge I gained from TREE.
Murad Al-Harasis, Jordan
He has since been manager of a training project on solar energy (composite solar heaters) in Jordan and hopes to conti nue to expand their knowledge of equipment and educati onal materials in other types of renewable energy. Murad would in the future like to att end other courses on Solar thermal systems and other courses.
