Tradeskills4u are very well known for providing top quality training for electricians. However, they also offer training for solar installers, something less people in the industry are aware of. They currently offer 20 courses. The longest is 22 days in length and the shortest are only a day long.
Is Tradeskills4u Solar Training For You?
Over the past few years, interest in solar power has soared and thousands of homes and businesses have had solar power installed. They took full advantage of the governments very generous Feed In Tariff (FIT) rates. Many homeowners realised that for a relatively small investment of £12,000 to £15,000 they could actually make money. Understandably, they jumped on the bandwagon and had solar power installed. Demand for solar panels began to outstrip availability. There were enough panels available, but, in some parts of the country, not enough installers.
Electricians and plumbers quickly realised that they already had a lot of the necessary skills and experience to install solar panels. They had gaps in their knowledge and did not have the right certification to install solar systems that would qualify for the government’s Feed In Tariff payments. Naturally, they turned to training firms they trusted and had used before like Tradeskills4u to get the necessary training and qualifications.
Any electrician who wants to expand their business can still do so by getting certified to install solar power systems. It is unlikely that demand will reach the dizzy heights they did over the past three years. However, demand is still there and is set to begin growing again. The price of solar panels is coming down again, they are getting more efficient and producing more power. Installing solar panels still makes financial sense for most homeowners and businesses. With the cost of power continuing to rise it is only a matter of time before people realise this and get solar panels installed. Therefore, it is still viable for electricians to re-train and offer solar power to their customers.
