A state-of-the-art “Smart Energy Lab” has been launched at a vocational lyceum in Kryvyi Rih, providing a cutting-edge platform for green energy education. The laboratory is equipped with modern training stations, photovoltaic components, solar panels, thermal collectors, and advanced IT infrastructure to give future engineers and technologists hands-on experience in renewable energy technologies.
This initiative is part of the KRYTSIA: Support for Recovery of Kryvyi Rih Raion project, implemented in partnership with PROMAN and the Luxembourg Development Agency LuxDev, with funding from the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg.
Hands-On Learning & Student Opportunities
Key training features of the laboratory include
- “Solar Panels with Roof Slope” station, allowing students to study photovoltaic systems, install panels, analyze electricity production, and assess solar module efficiency.
- “Vacuum Tube Collector” Thermal Solar Trainer, enabling students to apply solar energy for water heating and compare the efficiency of various thermal systems.
- Comprehensive IT infrastructure, including Chromebooks, personal computers, interactive whiteboards, and multifunctional devices for both students and educators.
Advancing Green Energy Education
The new laboratory will help students design, install, and maintain energy-efficient systems, which are crucial for modern energy infrastructure.
By establishing such educational hubs, Kryvyi Rih is enhancing its capacity to train renewable energy professionals, creating new opportunities for young specialists and contributing to the sustainable development of the region.
