Task number: 5.02.05

Date, Location, Time:

May 06th, 2009, 08:30-11:30; 13:30-16:00

Kampong Thom Orphanage

Theme:

Introduction of renewable energy-Solar Home System benefit

and PV system types Practical work on basic application of PV tool cases Field visit Solar Home System of the Orphanage

Target group: Level 1

Level 2

Level 3

Performance: Two presentations were given on Renewable Energy Resources

and PV System Types. Benefit of solar energy poster was

printed for explaining to the participants. Mobile SHS is installed

for demonstration. PV tool cases is provided for having some

practical work.

Participants:

16 participants attended the course. They are students, teach-

ers, farmers, authorities, electric businessman

Success: First of all, Mr. Chau Kim Heng took the attention of all partici-

pants about using PV applicants with fan cap and he started to

explain what renewable energy is, meanwhile he linked to the

benefit of SHS. Next, Mr. Phok Chrin gave presentation on PV

System Types including video of PV system application for rural

community to the participants. In the afternoon, participants

were explained about the basic use of PV tool cases. At the end

of the training session, the participants were brought to visit the

Orphanage’s houses connected to SHS.

2 Training Preparation

The training held on May 6th, 2009 at Kampong Thom Orphanage. It was organised by

COMPED and ITC. The participants were students, teacher, farmers, government authorities

and electric businessman. Resource persons were from COMPED and ITC and a person

who is from Heng Nguon Electricity Company. Presentation slides were printed, copied and

handed over to participants as hard copies for all trainees. Poster on PV benefit was

mounted on the wall in the training room.

Training materials or tool kits prepared are:

80 Wp PV capacity

2 * 12A Batteries

Charge Controller

Inverter

Applicant board of electric bulbs

PV panel mobile stand

Two PV panel protection boxes

4 PV tool cases

3 Training Performance

The training REEPRO Level 3 Course 5 on PV was separated into 2 parts. There were basic

understanding of PV system and practice using PV tool cases. The training started at 9:00 am

to 12:00 am and 13:30 pm to 15:30 pm.

3.1 Presentation

Individual presentation was included the content as details below:

Presentation slide on Renewable Energy Resources by Mr. Chau Kim Heng:

Introduction

Form of energy

Energy System

By using PV poster, Mr. Chau Kim Heng explained about PV benefit as below:

Social and economical benefit:

Reduce or stop spending for daily electricity consumption

Reliable and affordable energy

Payback period is 4-10 years

Contribute to health care

Reduce dependency on foreign electricity sources

Promote and encourage from the government

Environmental benefit:

Training Documentation Report

Contribute to environmental protection (fuel fossil)

Reduce environmental pollution (NOx, SOx, CO2)

Reduce charcoal waste remaining from energy production

Mr. Phok Chrin, ITC offered a presentation to the trainees about PV Systems Types

Electricity application using solar power

Video on PV system application for rural community by SNV

Showing the electricity supply as a decentralized PV system for an off-grid community

using for lighting, running media and water pumping

Mr. Phok Chrin from ITC explained about the function of PV system:

Conversion from solar light into electricity goes through charge controller, batteries,

Inverter and electrical appliances.

Basic PV system maintenance

In order to have better understanding for the participants, basic practical work with

PV training tool cases was given by Mr. Phok Chrin

Each PV training toolkit comprises of solar cells having protection design, connection boards

for series and parallel, plugs, a multi-meter containing in a case.

Serial Panel Connection

Parallel Panel Connection

Output data measurements

Field visit to the Orphanage’s houses connected with SHS in the Orphanage

Kampong Thom

3.2 Discussion

Discussion was made by questions and answers during the presentation and practical

works. Some questions were raised as below:

What applicants can we use with solar system?

Where is the energy store?

How much is the SHS for a minimum use and how long it last?

Do we need to change any components of the solar home system? and how much?

3.3 Conclusion

Most of the invited participants were quite mixed among students, authorities, trainers,

teachers, farmers and villagers. The initial training is for the participants about renewable

energy, esp. solar energy is relevant to their daily living and could be one option in concern-

ing with energy supply for their consumption. It is to raise the awareness among the local

community to start pay attention about the global energy crisis and an existing solution

which renewable solar energy. Moreover, this training gave chance for the participants in

having some understanding about the electricity capacity produced by solar cells of PV tool

cases. The most important thing is that the participants were allocated to visit the existing

PV SHS installation at the houses of the orphanage.

4 Questionnaire Evaluation

Questionnaire for this Level 3 was not given. It is kind of dissemination workshop to grass-

root level. However, from the procedures and discussion in the training, the trainees were

very impressed about the new introduction of PV system in their area but as indicated, they

are worried about the high investment cost at the moment.

5 Training Documentation

5.1 Invitation

REEPRO Project invited Mr. Chrin Phork from ITC and another is from Heng Ngoun Com-

pany. Participants were authorities, teachers, students and farmers were invited by Mr. Roth

Seang Hay, Administrative Office Chief of Environment Department, Kampong Thom prov-

ince. The invitation letters were prepared by Department of Environment and delivered to the

participants and the officer also explained about the reason and benefit of the training to

convince them to participate in the training.
