Welcome to The Open Source Solar Project
OSSP is a collaborative, multi-lingual effort to gather information, resources, and tools on off-grid photovoltaic system design, installation and use. The mission of the project is to improve practices, user experiences and safety in areas of the world where there are not well-developed standards or appropriate training available for this context. The project aims to be both a direct resource in these areas and to serve as a readily-adaptable base for the development of training materials that are tailored to the needs and standards of a particular area. OSSP is license-free running on the same platform as Wikipedia - please reach out if you are interested in collaborating or see incorrect information.
