and can be moved to the place whereneeded. Mobile PV systems consist of PV panels to produce electricity from the sun, chargecontroller to regulate the voltage and current from the PV panel and lead-acid batteries to storethe electricity, inverters to change DC into AC and wiring to connect various components.Mobile PV systems use components similar to standalone systems but are configured for theharsh demands placed on portable systems.Mobile PV systems were first 8 used in the disaster relief of Hurricane Hugo in 1988 to providepower for various usages. These systems on trailer have been used in many disasters includingNorthridge earthquake (1991), Hurricane Andrew (1992), Hurricane Bonnie (August 1988),Hurricane Georges (September 1988

appropriate into otherengineering courses in our program, an essential aspect of the engineering education.1.1 Renewable Energy Technology Course ContentsOur upper-level undergraduate course on renewable energy systems was first offered in theSpring 2010 quarter, and since is offered every year as core course. It is a three credit-hourcourse, using several textbooks, due to interdisciplinary nature of the subject. It primarily focuseson wind energy, wind power systems and solar/photovoltaic energy generation10-18. To a lesserextend it focuses on other renewable energy sources and related technologies. Wind and solarenergy and wind and solar power systems make up about 80% of the course since wind and solarenergy represent the fastest growing areas of
