Fronius to open the “24 hours of sun ACADEMY” in September


Wels, 29.07.2019) Small groups of learners, content tailored to individual requirements, communicated by passionate experts, personal support and buildings kitted out with the latest technology – this is some of what awaits attendees at the “24 hours of sun ACADEMY”. Fronius International GmbH will be opening the new training centre in September at the company’s headquarters in Wels (Upper Austria).

“We have a clear goal,” explains Martin Hackl, Global Director Solar Energy. “We want to give installers the very best support and equip them so they can expertly support their customers in their personal energy revolution.” To achieve this goal, in September Fronius International GmbH will be opening a new training centre at its headquarters in Wels. A team of experienced PV experts at the “24 hours of sun ACADEMY” will cover key topics based on real-life examples, and share specialist know-how relating to renewable energy solutions for homes and commercial applications. Participants will be taught practical aspects covering configuration, planning, commissioning and maintenance for all fields in energy sector integration, including photovoltaics, storage systems heating/cooling and e-mobility as well as monitoring and analysis. Qualification training will also be held for Fronius System Partners. Training modules are specifically tailored to the requirements and wishes of the customer.

Equipped for every challenge

“The energy revolution means new and complex areas are increasingly opening up such as e-mobility, battery and heat storage technologies plus the interconnection of sectors that demand a high degree of new know-how,” explains Volker Haider, Head of Training & Education at Fronius Solar Energy. “We help installers to get equipped for the challenges of today and tomorrow.” The latest teaching and learning methods will be applied in the ‘24 hours of sun ACADEMY’, including a mix of presentations, workshops and practical exercise units, that are precisely tailored to the requirements and wishes of the group. The participants will work on real devices and practise situations they will be confronted with in real life. “These methods will help us to effectively communicate the key information,” continues Haider. The concept is supplemented by an extensive portfolio of webinars, e-learning courses and training videos that trainees can follow online.
