Welcome to the European Solar Engineering SchoolThe European Solar Engineering School (ESES) provides a unique education in solar engineering at Högskolan Dalarna. The one year Masters program is based on research work at the Solar Energy Research Center (SERC). The program provides proficiency in all main solar engineering subjects and allows the students after graduating to work as experts in the solar industry and in academic reserach. This webpage is made by actual and former ESES students and provides information about the program, the life in Borlänge and serves as a meeting point for current, former and prospective students The count down for the solar boat race Frisian Solar Challenge 2008 has started
The new team for the FSC, Europes largest solar boat race, has been formed. Richard was already very active and got the draft for the design of the new boat. Now also a bunch of ESES students have started to work on the design of the electrical system.
We are looking for your any kind of support and sponsors. Here you can download our sponsor contract and the most important information about the "Midnightsun" team in English and Swedish. The Swedish version includes also the preliminary budget. Under “Solar Events” you can also read our blog from the race 2006. See also the picture gallery from the race last year.
Solar Hot Water System for Leather Factory in Pakistan

The solar system that is under construction will be a demonstration project for the development of solar energy in Pakistan. The ESES Student Mohammad Ali Syed is part of the development team and will summarize his work within his ESES Master thesis. The system is going to be installed in Sidique Leather Works which is one of the major producers of Leather in Pakistan. The hot water consumption of the factory is about 100 m 3 per day and in the first phase 30 m 3 per day will be produced with solar energy and rest will be supplied by the existing system. The collectors used are evacuated tube collectors having over all area of 400 m 2. Read more here.

2.2 MW Solar PV Roof in SpainJiangxue Chen, one student from the ESES batch 2006/2007 was working for her Master's thesis project with the Spanish company AMT-Solar on the design of a large PV roof system in Spain. The grid connected system will be located in the city of Jerez de la Frontera and will cover the roofs of parking lots of a commercial center. The system will be the largest on-grid solar rooftop PV system in the region of Andalusia. Jiangxue was working on the design of this project including PV and civil aspects. The design work for the solar system was carried out with the simulation software PVSYST which is also used in the PV course at ESES. For the construction design Jiangxue used the software CYPE, which is widely used in Spain. The PV system has been divided in 22 100 kW arrays with 480 223Wp moduls each, 20 in series and 24 in parallel.
