SUPPORTING PV EDUCATION

EKO Academy. From sensor selection to bankable data.

Get the measurement knowledge your projects require. Specify, commission and operate EKO systems with confidence.

Eliminate measurement bias before it affects your yield assessment.

Orientation errors, shading and thermal offset distort GHI and DNI readings. Learn to identify and correct them before they reach your energy yield model.

Learn about EKO Instruments' sensors

Understand standards, operating principles, uncertainty budgets and application limits of each EKO instrument. Select and integrate the right sensor for your measurement objective.

Correct specification from the start reduces CapEx

Invest in training and education upfront to eliminate replacements, recalibration, rework, and costly return site visits.

New to EKO Academy? This short introductory module covers platform navigation, progress tracking, reference library access and how to reach EKO technical support.

Covers the physics of solar radiation, the components of irradiance , measurement standards and the relationship between irradiance data quality and the uncertainty of bankable energy yield assessments.

A technical deep-dive into pyranometer design and operating principles: spectral response, cosine response, thermal offset, zero-offset A/B and ISO 9060:2018 classification criteria. Covers mounting geometry, leveling, wiring and integration into data loggers and SCADA systems.

Coming soon:

Course 03: Pyranometer Troubleshooting

Structured diagnostic workflows for identifying and resolving the most common pyranometer measurement anomalies: thermal offset drift, dome contamination, leveling error, cable faults, analog output signal loss and data logger configuration problems. Includes annotated real-world case examples.

Course 04: Ultimate Guide to MS-80SH Plus+

Product-specific training for EKO’s MS-80SH Plus+ heated pyranometer. Covers sensor specifications and classification, heating circuit operation and power requirements, RS-485 Modbus configuration, integration with common data acquisition platforms and preventive maintenance schedule.

Course 05: EKO Q - Reading Data

Practical guide to working with data from EKO Q, EKO’s cloud-based irradiance data platform. Covers data export formats, quality flags and their interpretation, gap-filling procedures and how to use irradiance time series for performance analysis, PR reporting and yield verification.
