Summary

With over 6 years of experience in photovoltaic engineering and solar technology, I currently contribute as Solar System Development Manager at BMI Group. My mission is to optimize and expand our PV product portfolio across diverse markets while ensuring compliance with quality standards. Passionate about advancing sustainable energy solutions, I aim to foster innovation in building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) and empower teams with technical support and documentation that align with organizational goals. At BMI Group, I focus on enhancing PV systems through rigorous product testing, ensuring compliance with certification standards, and developing prototypes for pitched roof applications. Leveraging my background in solar application engineering, I actively support the design and launch of cutting-edge BIPV products, contributing to the broader adoption of renewable energy technologies. My expertise in PV design, data analysis, and technical problem-solving drives impactful results for sustainable construction initiatives.

Projects

Lithium Ion Battery Efficiency test, Finding Efficiencies related to separate Solar system components, What was a successful outcome of your work? (e.g. Raised $3,000 for the charity), German Jordanian University Building Efficiency Improvement, German Jordanian University has grown both in size and stature over the past few years with a fast pace and now it contains number of student, larger than what is has 5 years ago. With that growth pace, we have rapid increase of energy demands in different university facilities for Air-conditions, labs, lighting and other power consumption units with an approximate rate of 8% per year [1]., Within the next 10 years it is expected that the number of power consuming facility units installed in German Jordanian University will be more than double There is insufficient use of energy in many building specially Building A due to the lack of supervising, bad use of the appliances that available and lack of management., In my project I will try to reduce energy consumption by minimum 10% and make our energy usage more efficient. Also trying to find applicable solution with regarding to the sources available and with small payback period... not more than five years First step I will study building structure then know what kind of appliances we use then get the tariff rate for our university. Then make a detailed energy audit. After that try to find how to optimize energy usage in a way to reach our final goal (reducing energy consumption and electrical bills at least 10%), What was a successful outcome of your work? (e.g. Raised $3,000 for the charity)
