Shadow Analysis of Solar Plant in Google SketchUp (RCC)

Welcome to the course “Shadow Analysis of Solar Plant in Google SketchUp (RCC)” – your complete guide to mastering 3D modeling and solar shadow analysis using Google SketchUp, one of the most powerful and user-friendly design tools in the industry.In today’s solar power projects, accurate shadow analysis is a critical factor that directly impacts energy generation, efficiency, and feasibility of rooftop and ground-mounted solar plants. This course has been designed to give you both the technical skills and practical insights required to model RCC structures, design module mounting structures, place solar panels, and perform professional shadow analysis with animations.By the end of this course, you will be able to confidently create 3D solar plant designs, conduct detailed shadow studies, and present high-quality reports and visuals for projects, clients, or academic work.What You Will LearnFundamental commands of Google SketchUp for solar plant designing.Importing site location and preparing the site survey drawing.Construction of RCC structure in 3D for rooftop projects.Step-by-step modeling of module mounting structures (foundation, columns, rafters, purlins, back support).Construction and placement of solar panels, strings, and arrays with tilt and orientation.Performing shadow analysis in Google SketchUp with accuracy.Creating and exporting shadow analysis animations for professional presentations.PrerequisitesNo prior experience in Google SketchUp required – this course starts from the basics.Basic understanding of solar energy concepts is helpful but not mandatory.
