2399 Solar PV Course for Electricians for Domestic Installations

[David Bannerman]

What everybody’s thoughts on the 2399 solar pv course? Has anyone done the course? Is there a big market for self employees electricians going into installing solar panels in domestic premises?

I'm not an electrician, but from what I can tell checking forums stats and even Google search terms related to Solar PV, it appears the industry in the UK has died off bigtime.

The government stopped subsidising it, or something, so it's now just expanding at a normal rate. So the jobs shared between those who got some experience and / or training a few years ago (which was a lot of people all chasing the gold rush as it were) isn't much at all per head now.

I notice you're currently in Iran though (according to your flag by your avatar) so I don't know whether you're asking about the UK, or Iran, or just globally generally.

The flag is an Iraqi flag Dan, they aren't that friendly with Iran at present.
