Solar Training & wORKFORCE

 

Mee Panyar delivers solar training programs in Myanmar focused on building practical skills for technicians, installers, and early-career professionals working in the solar energy sector. Our training supports the development of a capable local workforce able to design, install, operate, and maintain solar PV and mini-grid systems in real-world conditions.

Our approach combines hands-on technical training with an understanding of how solar systems function within local markets, institutions, and communities.

Who the Training Is For

Our solar training programs are designed for:

  • Entry-level and early-career solar technicians

  • Electricians transitioning into solar PV

  • Installers working on rooftop, off-grid, or mini-grid systems

  • Community energy practitioners and local operators

  • Individuals seeking practical, employment-relevant solar skills

Training is delivered with local context in mind, reflecting the technical, safety, and operational realities of solar work in Myanmar.

What the Training Covers

Depending on the course and format, training topics may include:

  • Solar PV system fundamentals

  • System sizing and basic design principles

  • Installation practices for rooftop and ground-mounted systems

  • Off-grid and mini-grid system configurations

  • Batteries, inverters, and balance-of-system components

  • Electrical safety, wiring, and protection devices

  • Testing, commissioning, and basic troubleshooting

  • Operation and maintenance considerations

Training Approach

Mee Panyar’s solar training emphasizes:

  • Hands-on, practical learning

  • Application of skills in real installation contexts

  • Safety and technical standards appropriate to decentralized energy systems

  • Alignment with local employment pathways and market needs

Training formats may include in-person workshops, intensive short courses, training-of-trainers programs, and blended or modular delivery depending on the program.

Connection to the Local Solar Ecosystem

Solar training at Mee Panyar is part of a broader effort to support the development of a sustainable local solar energy ecosystem in Myanmar. Training is designed to complement:

  • Community energy and mini-grid initiatives

  • Employer engagement and workforce demand

  • Institutional capacity building

  • Long-term market viability rather than isolated projects

This ecosystem-oriented approach helps ensure that skills development contributes meaningfully to the growth and stability of the local solar sector.
