Training course: Introduction to Renewables in Buildings

Following the success of training courses run earlier this year, TEAM is pleased to be offering further dates for our popular "Introduction to Renewables in Buildings" course.

This one-day course explores the benefits and possible financial gains of each of the options below:

  • Solar Thermal
  • Solar Photovoltaic
  • Small Scale Wind
  • Heat Pumps
  • Biomass

 Renewable energy technologies are a way of reducing your organisation's carbon emissions, and can make real contributions to energy reduction. But by how much? Where do they work best? Are they cost effective?

This course will help to answer some of these questions. It will explain how each technology works and where they are best applied. Using case studies from real installations you will find out about some of the pitfalls and important lessons learned. You will discover what tools are available to calculate the benefits from renwables, and how to assess the risks associated with implementing them.
