Productive-use energy platform — GT-PROD-01

GT-PROD-01 is the productive-use block of the nine-module GENIE TECHNICS renewable-energy programme. It is not a simple solar-pump trainer: it links useful demand, available energy, pumping, irrigation, cold, productive motors and operating economics. Learners size a service (water, conservation, small processing), not merely an electrical rating. Training: 10 days — 70 hours.

Characteristics

• GENIE TECHNICS renewable-energy programme, nine modules: internal GT-RE-BASE (not sold alone) and eight sellable blocks
• Solar foundation: GT-RE-01 operator 21 h · GT-RE-02 installer 35 h · GT-RE-03 hybrid technician 35 h · GT-RE-04 microgrid expert 35 h
• Extension: GT-HYD-01 hydro 70 h · GT-GRID-01 grid 70 h · GT-PROD-01 productive uses 70 h · GT-OPS-01 operations and maintenance
• GT-WIND-01: commercial complement attached to GT-HYD-01 (hydro / electromechanics); 70 h training; outside the core path
• Core path (RE-01 to 04 + HYD + GRID + PROD, excluding trainer-of-trainers option): 336 h
• Skill chain: generate → convert → store → distribute → supervise → maintain → productive uses
• Ordered alone or as the full path; learners configure, measure, inject a fault, diagnose and restore service
• Groups of 8 to 12; 20 % input, 65 % practicals, 15 % assessment
• Productive-use block of the EnR programme — pumping, irrigation, cold, motors and EMS
• Four linked zones: pumping and water loop, irrigation, pedagogical cold chamber, productive loads
• Adjustable PV emulator 0 to 3 kW with daily profiles, shading and temperature, plus a protected real-field input
• Pump drive, solar DC and/or AC input according to version ; integrated or separate MPPT
• Interchangeable pumps: centrifugal and simulated submersible, 0.75 to 2.2 kW
• Closed hydraulic loop, 300 to 500 litre reservoir, visible level, drain and cleaning
• Flow 0 to 10 m³/h (target ≤ 1 %) ; head 0 to 30 mWC
• Demonstrative drip and sprinkler irrigation, separate zones, pressure, flow, schedule, simulated soil moisture
• Protected 230 V AC bus and 24/48 V DC outputs for farm supply
• Variable motor load 0.75 to 1.5 kW (mill, crusher, fan, conveyor or small machine)
• Pedagogical cold chamber: 150 to 300 litre useful volume ; setpoint 2 to 8 °C ; compressor 200 to 500 W
• Optional phase-change thermal storage
• Calculations: H(Q), efficiency, kWh/m³, m³/day, reservoir autonomy, useful cooling energy, estimated COP
• Local EMS: pumping, filling, irrigation, cold and loads according to available energy
• At least 20 fault scenarios ; final project on pumping, irrigation, cold or small processing
• Recommended training duration: 70 hours
