Using the National Renewable Energy Lab’s PVWatts: Building interactive learning experiences

The National Renewable Energy Lab's PVWatts is the most widely used first step for estimating the production and financial performance of distributed photovoltaic systems.  The 15 minute presentation and subsequent conversation will provide a demonstration of the PVWatts software and offer suggestions for implementing the tool into Extension presentations and one-on-one meetings.

The PV Watts tool is available from http://pvwatts.nrel.gov/

The webinar is part of the WSARE funded Exploring Energy Efficiency and Alternatives Curriculum (E3A), which will soon be available under a creative commons license.

Space is limited to the first 25 attendees.  No pre-registration is required.

Today, the Foundation partners with Cooperative Extension through liaison roles and a formal plan of work with the Extension Committee on Organization and Policy (ECOP) to increase system capacity while providing programmatic services, and helping Extension programs scale and investigate new methods and models for implementing programs. The Foundation provides professional development to Cooperative Extension professionals and offers exclusive services to its members. In 2020 and 2021, the Extension Foundation has awarded 85% of its direct funding back to the Cooperative Extension System, 100% of funds are used to support Cooperative Extension initiatives.
