The swift advancement of renewable energies demands top-notch technical and engineering expertise. However, a study program tailored for a challenging professional environment requires a strong emphasis on didactic quality in designing and implementing modules and learning units.

The "Professional Education for Renewable Energy in Ghana (ProREG)" project places a significant focus on practical aspects of renewable energy in the country, employing teaching and learning formats adapted to these needs. Funded by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD), the project is scheduled to run from July 2022 to December 2025.

ProREG aims to enhance the labor market relevance of education in the field of renewable energy in Ghana. The current challenge is that graduates often require substantial effort and lengthy training periods to be employable by companies, impeding the broader expansion of renewable energies in the country. To address this, three primary project objectives have been collaboratively defined for improvement:

Integration of new practice-relevant modules in the field of renewable energies into the curricula of KNUST and UENR and training of lecturers at KNUST and UENR, equipping them with expertise in agile teaching and learning formats focused on the practical application of renewable energies.

An international network of experts, entrepreneurs, and companies in the field of renewable energies is operative and in active contact with the "Council for Education and Renewable Energies".

The University for Energy and Natural Resources (UENR), Sunyani; Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), Kumasi; and Technische Universität Berlin (TUB, coordinator) are the project's partners.

Redavia (DE), Microenergy International (DE), Stella Futura Ghana Ltd. (GH), Association of Ghana Industries (GH), Greentech Biogas Engineering Services (GH), and the Bui Power Authority (GH) are the partner companies.
