    Australia’s demand for renewable energy is anticipated to grow exponentially as we head toward Net Zero energy targets.

    Consumers are seeking environmentally friendly power solutions for commercial and domestic applications and/or charging electric vehicles (EV) and the demand for alternative energy systems such as solar energy to support homes and businesses is growing every day. This means more electricians and workers skilled in the design and installation of Grid Connected Photovoltaic systems are needed.
