A life-changing experience
Arrays for the Tohono O'odham Reservation
Suveer Panditrao installed 2 free-standing fixed tilt solar arrays and corresponding Instruction Manual for off-grid households in Pisinemo AZ. The arrays were reinforced to withstand powerful dust devils and tall enough to not electrocute livestock seeking shade underneath the structures, using materials that were in harmony with the Tohono O’odham spiritual beliefs.
Suveer’s Favorite Project
Solar Parking Lot Canopies for the MBTA
Provided preliminary array design and grid interconnection assistance for developing a portfolio of solar carports over surface and garage parking lots of 37 Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority train stations, cumulatively over 40 MW in size.
What Suveer Brings to the Table
A passionate, engineering-centric driver who can take trust, time and monetary investment and process them into photovoltaic solar development and a long-term revenue stream for the investors, while contributing positively to the electricity-hungry energy market and the human society fighting global warming and mass extinction of animal and plant species
Suveer's Career Goals
Glare Analysis Refinement
Owing to the limited availability of commercially available FAA-compliant glare analysis tools, the results of glare simulations of solar arrays with backtracking are less than accurate and need revised computation methods
Bulk Energy Storage Systems
Designing future Distributed Generation projects with AC coupled batteries will allow the hybrid asset to participate in energy markets, offer grid support and offer peak load shaving options
NABCEP PVDS™ Certification
Being a North American Board of Certified Energy Practitioners Photovoltaic Design Specialist™ is an achievement, that signifies the nationally approved competency of the designer, their dedication to upholding the level of mutual trust and respect for the board of peers, fellow certified designers, employers and the general public
Soiling Snow Losses
Photovoltaic simulation analysts and designers are in dire need of a standardized, universally accepted and dynamically evolving method of calculating soiling losses due to snow, forest fire debris and salt water/air precipitation
Floating Photovoltaic Solar Projects
With civic and commercial acceptance and support, floatovoltaics could prove to be versatile in their application locations and their design configurations
Professional Engineering License
The license to stamp an electrical drawing in each of the states in the US is invaluable, not only to indicate the highest levels of engineering skill and competence but also to sponsor engineers-in-training for their own professional engineering licensure, thereby promoting better and safer renewable energy installations
