Customers increasingly want solar, batteries and renewable measures together. These qualifications let electricians and installers quote for the whole job rather than passing half of it on to someone else.
- Solar PV, battery storage and energy efficiency
- Recognised for MCS registration
- Trusted by some of the UK's biggest companies
- Practical installation and commissioning assessment
Renewable technologies explained.
Adding solar or storage? These answers explain the qualifications and where to start.
Heating engineers more often start with heat pumps.
They are upskill courses that add technology-specific knowledge on top of an existing electrical background, covering system design, DC and AC sides, protection, commissioning and the standards each technology works to. They will not qualify a plumber or heating engineer to carry out the electrical installation.
If you need the underpinning electrical qualifications first, start with our electrical courses.
Our MCS guide sets out what the scheme expects from installers.
Beyond the saving, the two technologies are increasingly installed together, since most domestic solar quotes now include storage as standard. Training in both means you can price and deliver the complete system rather than subcontracting half of it, and it is one block of time away from the tools instead of two.
It is still one of the fastest-growing areas for electricians and pairs naturally with solar and storage work, which is why we list it here as well as under electrical. Grant-funded charge point work has its own approved installer requirements, separate from MCS.
