Topics and units
Entry requirements
Qualified electricians wanting to install solar panels and battery storage in compliance with electrical and MCS regulations.
Additional information
With the increase in electricity tariffs and changes in the PV tariffs, customers are looking to invest in installations and at other ways to reap extra returns from their PV Energy Systems.
In the first quarter of 2023 alone, over 50,000 households installed solar panels. Installers now have an excellent opportunity for new installations, or to revisit past ones, and advise clients on maximising the potential returns on their Solar PV System in the summer months and purchasing cheaper off-peak electricity in the winter.
This course is ideal for electricians looking to up skill and provide services to the growing renewable energy sector. If you are registered with a competent person scheme it will support your application to become MCS registered.
