The British Academy for Training and Development offers a training course on the fundamentals of renewable energy. Renewable energy technologies are considered clean sources of energy due to their significantly lower environmental impact compared to traditional energy technologies. It is well known that conventional electricity generation is the main cause of industrial air pollution worldwide. Most of the electricity we use comes from coal, nuclear power, and other non-renewable power plants. Energy production from these sources causes severe environmental damage, leading to air, land, and water pollution. This course will provide awareness of renewable technologies, what they are, what they involve, the practical requirements, the science, the equipment, and the entire topic discussed and demonstrated. By the end of this course, participants will understand the importance and roles of renewable energy in this modern era and how to maximize natural resources and convert them into renewable energy. Additionally, it will create awareness of the different types of renewable energy.
