undergraduate students [6-8, 12].A natural and efficient way of teaching renewable energy into curriculum is the project-basedapproach, shaping the course content to local industry fields. Course content and deliverymethods should be structured to meet the demands and challenges of such a dynamic,interdisciplinary and complex applied science field. Laboratory work is a critical component ofthe engineering education, and a core component of technical programs. Unfortunately, in therenewable energy case, the equipment is expensive, in terms of acquisition and maintenance,requiring adequate space and utility access. To cope with such challenges we are proposing inthe next academic year to develop a virtual renewable energy laboratory, consisting of
