Virtual Reality for Green Energy Manufacturing Education AbstractThis paper presents the project-based learning result of green energy manufacturing integratedwith virtual reality (VR). This work provides an innovative solution for optimizing learningeffectiveness and improving educational outcomes through the development of virtual models thatcan be used and integrated into the existing renewable energy laboratory. The goal is to apply theseprototypical simulators to train undergraduate engineering students and professionals in windenergy education; and to offer experiential learning opportunities in 3D modeling, simulation, andvisualization. The students were given multiple projects

]. However, to date, the large-scale production is limited due to the relativelylow device efficiencies (~14%), high-price catalytic materials and high-temperature processingconditions [5]. New materials and structures, together with an optimized manufacturing process,are needed to lower production costs while maintaining efficiency such that DSSCs areeconomically viable. In this project, we study the working principle of DSSCs, fabricate DSSCdevices in the laboratory, test their performance using basic equipment, and propose the route tomass-produce DSSCs. The objective of this project is for participants to identify the key factorsthat affect DSSC performance, manufacturing time, and cost, and explore the manufacturing routesthat could push the
