Solar Photovoltaic System Design and Installation
Solar installations underperform when they are sized on optimism rather than on load data and site conditions. This course covers system sizing, component selection, installation practice and commissioning for grid tied and hybrid systems.
Substation Operation and Maintenance
Substations concentrate risk and consequence in one place. This course covers the equipment, switching discipline and maintenance regime that keep a substation safe and available.
