and longer time since such power engineering courses were offered [36-48].We have also have to keep in mind that an upgrading of a power engineering laboratory is anexpensive enterprise and requires adequate laboratory facility, space and support. Recent powerindustry developments demonstrate that technical understanding of power systems, underscoredby hands-on laboratory experience, is even more important than some might have previouslythought. A versatile laboratory, providing coverage separately or in combination, became avaluable asset, which can be used for various experiments, while emphasizing on different facetsof power systems analysis, power electronics and control, machine characteristics or energyconversion concepts. While most of

date, students and faculty involved in the program come from mechanicalengineering (ME), civil engineering (CE), electrical engineering (EE), computer science (CSC)and computer engineering (CPE).The current resources available for the lab include a microgrid with its renewable energy sourcesand a utility scale 4.5 MW single-axis tracker solar farm [2] that was built on our campus.Although the primary role of the solar farm is to produce electricity, around 25% of the campusdemand, it was built with research opportunities in mind so a tremendous amount of data comingout of the field is available to us. This data includes information about every inverter, everytracker, every transformer and the weather conditions, including irradiation and total
