Kishan Maharjan
@kishanmaharjan
I design solar, hydropower, and building-energy solutions that improve performance, cost, and compliance.
CanadaWhat I'm looking for
I've delivered solar PV designs at Sunfarmer Nepal, leading engineers through quality-controlled design work with 100% timely completion. I also reduced design revisions by 30% by translating client requirements into clear engineering solutions.
Across solar and hydropower projects, I've designed hydro-mechanical shop drawings, prepared bills of materials, supported fabrication, supervised construction, and optimized clean-energy performance to offset energy use by 90%.
I'm an Engineer-in-Training registered with PEGNL and an NRCan-certified Energy Advisor. I use IES VE, HOT2000, HOMER, PVSyst, AutoCAD, Revit MEP, and Python to model and improve building and renewable-energy systems.
