PVsyst is a professional solar energy simulation software developed by PVsyst SA (Switzerland) and used worldwide to model the energy output, system losses, and financial performance of photovoltaic installations. In Dubai, PVsyst simulation reports are required for technical feasibility submissions, investor-grade project documentation, and DEWA Shams Dubai grid-connection proposals. Solar design engineers and renewable energy consultants working on projects for Emaar, DEWA, Nakheel, and Dubai South use PVsyst to generate the bankable energy yield assessments that project owners, lenders, and regulatory authorities require before approving system deployment. A PVsyst course in Dubai at Orbit Training Centre gives you the hands-on simulation skills to produce these reports independently and accurately.
According to DEWA, the Shams Dubai programme had connected solar PV systems totalling 725 megawatts across more than 8,430 buildings in Dubai by 2025, with DEWA certifying 1,115 solar specialists in 2024 alone across 38 training programmes.
As project complexity grows — from residential rooftops under Shams Dubai to large commercial arrays and the 5-gigawatt Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park — the need for simulation-accurate design has moved from optional to mandatory.
Energy yield reports produced in PVsyst form the basis of client proposals, EPC tenders, and project finance applications in Dubai.
Employers including Emirates Electrical Engineering, GreenFi Energy, and solar consultancies operating under Dubai’s D33 Economic Agenda all list PVsyst proficiency as a required or strongly preferred skill in solar engineer and renewable energy consultant job postings.
Over 35 hours in structured 2-hour sessions, you will complete a full PVsyst simulation for a 100kWp grid-tied rooftop system in Dubai using real Meteonorm climate data for the UAE region, build a 3D shading scene for a commercial building with adjacent obstructions, run a bifacial module simulation comparing rear-gain yield improvement, interpret the full loss diagram to identify where system performance can be optimized, and export a final bankable energy yield report formatted for DEWA Shams Dubai submission.
You will also use PVsyst’s economic analysis module to calculate LCOE and project payback period for a client proposal — the output format that solar sales engineers and project developers submit to developers and investors.
This course is designed for engineers and consultants who already have a foundation in solar PV systems and want to move into or advance within solar design.
Electrical engineers, MEP professionals, civil and energy engineers, and renewable energy graduates are the primary audience.
Working solar installers who want to add design and reporting capability to their skill set, and project managers overseeing solar EPC delivery who need to read and challenge simulation reports, also benefit directly.
Basic familiarity with solar PV concepts — how panels, inverters, and grid-connection work — is helpful before joining; Orbit’s broader Solar Course covers these prerequisites for anyone starting from zero.
| Role | PVsyst Application | AED Salary Range |
|---|---|---|
| Solar PV Designer | Energy yield simulation, shading, loss modeling | AED 10,000–16,000/month |
| Solar Project Engineer | Feasibility reports, tender documentation | AED 14,000–22,000/month |
| Renewable Energy Consultant | Bankable reports, investor submissions | AED 18,000–28,000/month |
| Solar Sales Engineer | Client proposals, ROI and payback analysis | AED 12,000–18,000/month |
| EPC Technical Lead | Multi-array design, utility-scale simulation | AED 20,000–30,000/month |
PVsyst proficiency shifts a solar professional from installation-focused to design-focused roles — a move that typically brings a 40–70% salary uplift in the Dubai market.
Companies hiring for these roles in Dubai include solar EPC contractors, engineering consultancies, facility management firms with large building portfolios, and utility developers working on DEWA-affiliated projects.
Freelance solar consultants with PVsyst skills charge AED 400–800 per day for feasibility studies and design reports on residential and commercial projects.

The free demo session at Orbit includes a live walkthrough of the PVsyst interface using Dubai climate data, a sample loss diagram interpretation exercise, and a Q&A on DEWA submission report requirements — so you can assess course depth before committing.
One-to-one training lets you focus the curriculum on your specific project type: residential Shams Dubai, commercial rooftop, or utility-scale ground mount.
Post-training support includes 30-day access to course materials, direct mentor queries for project-specific simulation questions, and guidance on structuring your first client-ready PVsyst report. Orbit’s PVsyst certification is KHDA-aligned and recognized by solar employers across the UAE.
PVsyst is the industry-standard solar simulation software used to model energy yield, system losses, and financial performance of photovoltaic installations. In Dubai, PVsyst reports are required for DEWA Shams Dubai grid-connection submissions, investor-grade feasibility studies, and EPC project tenders. Solar design engineers and consultants use it to produce the bankable documentation that clients, lenders, and project authorities need before approving solar system deployment.
PVsyst is not the only accepted simulation tool, but it is the industry standard for producing the energy yield and loss analysis reports that form part of DEWA Shams Dubai technical submission packages. Most solar design consultancies and EPC contractors in Dubai use PVsyst to generate the simulation outputs that DEWA requires, including performance ratio data, energy yield estimates, and shading analysis results. Proficiency in PVsyst is listed as a direct hiring requirement in solar design engineer job postings from Dubai-based firms.
Orbit’s PVsyst course runs for 35 hours in total, delivered in 2-hour sessions. Attending three sessions per week, most students complete the course in four to five weeks. One-to-one learners who schedule sessions daily can finish in two to three weeks. The online live format follows the same structure with flexible scheduling across UAE business days. All formats include hands-on simulation exercises using Dubai-specific climate data.
A basic understanding of solar PV systems — how panels, inverters, and grid connections work — is recommended before joining the PVsyst course. This does not require a formal qualification; working familiarity from a solar installation background is sufficient. Orbit’s broader Solar Course covers these fundamentals for anyone starting from zero. The PVsyst course itself starts from software navigation and builds through simulation exercises without assuming prior PVsyst experience.
Solar PV designers with PVsyst skills earn AED 10,000–16,000 per month in Dubai. Solar project engineers handling feasibility reports and EPC tenders draw AED 14,000–22,000 per month. Renewable energy consultants producing bankable reports for investors and developers earn AED 18,000–28,000 per month. Freelance solar consultants with PVsyst expertise typically charge AED 400–800 per day for simulation studies on residential and commercial projects.
