Photo-Voltaic Solar Systems
Updated
On: Jan 21, 2008 (16:55:00)
PV SOLAR TRAINING
The Redwood Empire JATC in conjunction with the Redwood Empire LMCC and IBEW #551 recently conducted a two-day training workshop on planning, installing, and testing photo-voltaic systems.
The training was held over a period of two days beginning at 7:00 AM on Saturday, January 12th and ended Sunday January 13th. A lunch was served, and class ended at 4:30 PM. The instructors were from IBEW Local #11 (Los Angeles).
“Green” energy is the buzz-word . . . it was exciting to be a part of this growing trend. IBEW #551 is actively involved in Solar Sebastopol, which envisions mass usage of photovoltaic systems throughout Sonoma County. It would not be unexpected if solar energy systems become required for new construction throughout the county.
