Programme description

This course combines our Battery Storage and Solar PV courses into one 5-day course to get you fully certified in installing and maintaining Solar PV-based renewable energy storage systems. If you prefer, you can choose the course that fits you or your employees needs best rather than doing a combined course!

Battery Storage Course - usually a 2-day standalone course

The qualification has been designed with the latest IET Code of Practice and is recognised by the Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS). You will study to achieve an LCL Awards Level 3 Award in the Design, Installation and Commissioning of Electrical Energy Storage Systems.

Solar PV Course - usually a 3-day standalone course

This course will give you the skills and knowledge to install and maintain Solar Photovoltaic panels. It's LCL Awards Level 3 accredited, and successful students will become fully certified to install and maintain Solar PV systems in the field. You will achieve a Level 3 Award in the Installation and Maintenance of Small Scale Solar Photovoltaic Systems.

Who is this programme for?

This course is designed for anyone who's already a qualified electrician looking to upskill and add Solar Photovoltaic and Battery Storage to their list of services.
