Course Information

22453 Course in New Energy Technology Systems (NETS)

Through this course you will develop skills to work in grid and battery storage design and battery installation.

This is a nationally accredited qualification developed by industry in response to the upcoming demand for residential solar battery installations by consumers.

The Course involves four units of study:

VU22123   Undertake site assessment for installation of a grid-connected renewable energy generation system
VU22124   Design grid connected photovoltaic power supply systems
VU22125   Design a grid-connected battery storage system to meet client requirements
UEERE4001   Install, maintain and fault find battery storage systems for grid-connected photovoltaic systems

Students may enrol in one/several units of study rather than the full qualification

Assessment:

Assessment is part of each unit and will include:

  • direct observation of processes and procedures
  • oral and written questioning
  • inspection of final processes
  • documented work-based evidence
  • demonstration of practical skills.

Your successful completion of the pilot meets the application requirements for provisional CEC Battery Endorsement on your existing Grid Design and Install accreditation  (additional requirements apply – see www.solaraccreditation.com.au).
