BE Solar Workshop To Be Held On April 4th
A workshop to teach professionals about design and installation methods to implement energy efficiency, solar panels and battery technology in Bermuda is being planned for members of The Institute of Bermuda Architects [IBA], Construction Association of Bermuda [CAOB] and Bermuda Association of Professional Engineers [BAPE].
A BE Solar spokesperson said, “This is the third workshop that has been offered by BE Solar since 2016 and will take place at the Bermuda High School’s Innovation Centre where a 166 solar panel system was installed in 2021. Members from all three of the organizations are encouraged to attend to learn how to help their clients save money and stop burning fossil fuel.
“The workshop will provide an in-depth overview about the design, engineering and construction requirements specific for energy efficiency, solar electricity and battery storage. Attendees will learn how to select appropriate technology and products specific to local conditions in Bermuda and gain an understanding on how to reduce operating costs for buildings by reviewing base costs, savings and investment opportunities.
“An overview of the Bermuda Department of Planning requirements including updates about the integrated resource plan and national energy targets will be explained. Other sustainable design considerations for engineering and construction will be explored throughout the presentation.
“The IBA is currently seeking approval for the course to be accredited by the American Institute of Architects so that two 2 AIA LUs can be obtained.
“The seminar will be interactive and have two sessions, one which involves a presentation and the other which involves a tour of the solar system on top of the roof at BHS. The workshop and tours will commence at 5:00 on Tuesday April 4, 2023 at the BHS Innovation Centre. Drinks and nibbles will be provided at the end of the presentations and tour for networking.
“People who are interested in attending should RSVP via this https://tinyurl.com/2p8hbtdz.”
