Renewable Energy

If you're interested in getting your start in the clean energy (CE) sector, the Renewable Energy program is an ideal choice. This course will teach you electrical theory in alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) applications. You will also learn about electronic theory and the associated mathematical formulas to calculate electrical circuitry and electrical components, as well as how to use an electrical meter and oscilloscope to read voltage, amperage (current), and resistance (ohms). These principles will then be applied to wind energy and other renewable energy sources.
