As demand for solar panels and battery storage continues to rise across the UK, so does the need for electricians who can deliver reliable, compliant installations.
To help meet this demand, Warrington & Vale Royal College is now offering a short, intensive course that delivers two City & Guilds qualifications in just five days.
Designed specifically for practising electricians aged 18 plus, the course leads to City & Guilds Level 3 qualifications in Solar PV (2922-34) and Battery Storage (2923-34). It’s delivered in the college’s purpose-built Green Technology Hub and combines classroom-based theory with practical, hands-on training.
You’ll learn how to design, install, test, and maintain domestic solar PV and battery storage systems, with a strong focus on safety, compliance, and current industry standards including BS 7671 and MCS guidelines. Whether you are a self-employed electrician, run your own business, or you work as part of a larger team, this course is a fast and cost-effective way to expand your services into a high-demand area.
The full five-day training costs just £750 – half the value of the qualifications included – and courses start every Monday through to early December. Sessions run Monday to Friday, and spaces are limited to keep group sizes small and hands-on.
If you’re an electrician looking to secure your skillset, this course is a practical next step. With solar installations on the rise and government targets pushing for cleaner energy, qualified electricians with the right training are well-placed to pick up work in this growing sector.
