goMicromorph is your partner for modern education in green energy topics: solarPV has become a commodity, the integration of non-centraliesed electricity generators into a volatile network will be the next challenge. In order to successfully handle this task, education, teaching and modern methods are required. goMicromorph is supplying material for a motivating experience in cleantech topics. Just ask for your specific educational concept.
