Increasing environmental pollution directs people’s attention towards renewable energy sources. One of such sources is solar energy. Its use has an incredible potential, because  the sun send us more energy during an hour than all the people around the world use in a year … Solar energy is free, but possible configurations of photovoltaic devices can differ significantly in terms of price, performance and interaction of these two factors..

In ECOCENTRE ICPPC you will learn theoretical aspects and possible configurations of photovoltaic solar kits. At the workshop there will be a working example of how to install household solar power photovoltaic modules (known colloquially as solar panels) to enjoy free electricity from the sun.

Krzysztof Wietrzny – At the age of 16 he designed and built the first ecohouse, made of clay and straw, which you can see at ECOCENTRE ICPPC. He was the founder of ECOCENTRE ICPPC, where as the first person in Poland, he tested photovoltaic modules, solar panels, composting toilets and other green technologies. He participated and lectured in training courses and conferences in Poland and abroad. He guided  Prince Charles and many other famous people in ECOCENTRE ICPPC. For several years, Krzysztof has been the director of Solarshop www.solarshop.pl , the company that promotes and assembless various green technologies.
