Modern Trends in Renewables
About Course
Course Overview
A ‘quantum leap’ in renewables is the new, improved methods and technologies of solar power. Improvements and higher efficiencies of harnessing solar power are ongoing efforts executed by many agencies around the world. Battery storage systems and new battery technologies are another aspect with is dynamic and complements the solar power systems. The superior and dynamic offshore and onshore wind power is also expanding rapidly, with large output capacities. The incorporation of digitalization and software has improved the performance of wind power generation.
This RTI course will explore the modern trends in renewable energies. Over the years, the demand, installation, and utilization of renewables have grown exponentially. This realisation and consciousness of reducing carbon footprint has become a norm as the effects of climate change have significantly derailed most countries in the world. Trends towards green energy generation have gained momentum with a high degree of acceptance by the world’s population.
The Modern Trends in Renewables training course will elaborate on the various technologies of renewables. This will include the types of renewable energy generation and battery storage systems.
At the end of this training course, participants will learn to:
- Understand the different types of renewables
- Comprehend solar power generation
- Analyse the characteristics of wind power
- Understand the operation of other forms of renewable energy generation
- Appreciate the merits of storage battery systems
This training course will utilize a variety of proven online learning techniques to ensure maximum understanding, comprehension, and retention of the information presented.
Upon completion of the Regewall Training Institute course, the organizational impact would be:
- Technical training and up-skilling to improve and realise the full potential of a competent workforce.
- Productivity increases through the minimisation of project time acceptance/design, and testing.
- Identification for opportunities for improvements due to a deep understanding of the presented state-of-the-art renewable energy and battery storage technologies.
- Networking of personnel with technology leaders and other engineers and technicians with strong field experience.
- Attitude change of workforce, as a continuous follow-up of new technologies, and they are up,g could otherwise create a workforce with high resistance to change due to a lack of understanding.
- Ensure safety practices are adhered to when carrying out maintenance activities
On successful completion of this training course, the delegate will be able to understand:
- Understand the basis for the use of green energy
- Understand solar power generation
- Have an appreciation of wind power
- Be able to review the merits and technologies of renewables
- Comprehend the various types of battery storage systems
The technicians and maintenance staff will be able to comprehend the characteristics, types, construction, operations, and merits of renewable and battery storage systems. This will enable them to perform optimum maintenance.
