NABCEP Approved for Certification and Re-certification (Provides 12 of the required design and configuration credits including 6 hours NEC and 2 hours Building and Fire Safety Code)

Expand your professional knowledge of stand-alone, multimodal and self-consumption PV systems. This course teaches how to design PV systems for off-grid and grid-tied applications. It includes designing for PV well pumps, remote lighting, off-grid living, grid-tied systems with backup energy storage as well as for self-consumption systems for load shifting and peak shaving. 

This course includes presentation material covering the most crucial aspects of stand-alone and multimodal battery PV system configuration and design. It also includes mixed question/answer exercises throughout the presentation.

Complete the lessons at your own pace as your work and family schedule allows with 24 hour/7 days a week access. Once enrolled you have 52 weeks to complete the course.
