At Activate Trade Training, we believe it is important for those not within the electrical industry to still have some basic knowledge around electrics, especially when dealing with them on a regular basis.

If you or a member of your staff are sometimes required to isolate electrical circuits safely to perform maintenance tasks such as replacing lamps and fittings, damaged socket outlets and switch faceplates and more, you should really look into doing an electrical isolation course.

We offer a one day Safe Electrical Isolation course designed primarily for people with little to no electrical background, allowing you to feel confident in your safety around . See this course and others like it here: https://www.activate-training.co.uk/bespoke-courses/

I know it seems like it’s all we electricians talk about these days, but getting into solar genuinely is one of the best moves for your career over the coming years.

IBISWorld has estimated that in 2023, the solar panel installation industry in the UK is worth almost £600 million, a figure which is only set to increase as the UK’s energy infrastructure becomes more green and eco-friendly.

People will be demanding traders who can install solar panels for them, and you should be a part of it. Head to our website and check out our blogs for more info: https://www.activate-training.co.uk/blog/

If you’re considering learning more about the world of renewable domestic energy, the term “heat pump” is probably one you’ve heard thrown around a lot. But what do they do?

A heat pump takes heat from the ground or air around a building and increases it to a temperature that keeps homes and businesses warm inside.

While it uses electricity to do this, the quantity of heat delivered into a home is much greater than the quantity of electricity used to power the system, making it highly efficient.

It is obvious that the demand for electricians trained in solar PV installation has gone up and will continue to, and Indeed has stated that there has been a 315% increase in demand for solar installers over the last three years.

Battery storage technology is constantly developing and being used for a range of services, such as increasing the ‘self-consumption’ of buildings fitted with renewable energy systems, or providing a back-up or alternative power supply.

This means that there is a huge demand for people trained to install these technologies, which courses like those hosted by Activate Trade Training can provide.

Here’s something interesting: according to 3ti Energy Hubs, installing solar canopies in a car park could save firms around £1,000 per parking space per year on their energy costs.

These car parks often also come with charging points, helping to roll out the necessary infrastructure for EVs.

A car park of 250 spaces would save the firm £250,000 a year on energy costs, a mind-blowing amount.

Clearly, the future of the UK is headed towards the renewable, which means we need as many people trained up in these skills as possible. Check out our website for more info on how to make your start in the renewable revolution: https://www.activate-training.co.uk/
