A one day non-technical training seminar being
run on a quarterly basis which provides an introduction
to the main renewable energy technologies, to
include grants, planning issues and combining
the different technologies with the main focus
on domestic renewables. The training is held in
Milton Keynes but can be offered elsewhere on

This one day training course introduces and explains the main renewable energy technologies including:-
- Solar Water Heating

The
course includes interactive sessions in which
delegates will discuss the most appropriate renewable
