The British Academy for Training and Development offers a training course on Solar Energy Systems, as it is one of the most abundant and renewable energy sources in the world. It is solar radiation that can be used in several things, the most important of which are: producing chemical reactions, producing heat and generating electricity. In addition to the fact that solar energy is widespread all over the world, it is considered a clean source that does not cause pollution. Therefore, if it is exploited and utilized appropriately, it will meet a large percentage of the world's energy needs in the future.
