The province presented a platform to train in renewable energy

The Secretary of State for Energy presented on Thursday the website "Academy of Renewables", a platform through which online training can be carried out in installations of photovoltaic systems (solar panels) and solar water heaters, construction of renewable energy equipment , and operation and design of biodigesters. The presentation, which was headed by the Secretary of State for Energy, Verónica Geese, was made within the framework of the Course of Installation of Low-Power Photovoltaic Systems that was given at the headquarters of the Light and Strength Union of the city of Rosario .

On the occasion, Geese said that "this website is a logical conclusion of the work we have been doing for three and a half years with training in renewable energy."

"We realized that there was so much demand, so much thirst for learning and professionalization, that it was necessary to extend ourselves outside the limits of the province. These trainings can also be accessed from anywhere in the world who are interested in learning and making their contributions in renewable energy, especially those interested in the democratization of energy. "

Geese said that this website "is the corollary of all of us who have been working this time in training from the Undersecretary of Renewable Energies and that is where new and better ideas come from, more adapted to the reality of Santa Fe. This adds to the Energy Efficiency website that we presented last month and that allows courses to be carried out for certifiers and energy managers ".

"I think that we are able to make a great contribution to the democratization of energy, which should be a goal of all. That we are all closer every day to the energy that is produced and we understand it, it will make us an increasingly large province "he finished.

In turn, the Undersecretary of Renewable Energies, Roberto Bisso, explained that "this proposal is imperative to expand the knowledge bases of the population in renewable energies. We believe that for these energies to gain greater hierarchy and to work more strongly in diversification of the energy matrix of the province of Santa Fe, and of course in the country, we have to strengthen the culture of renewable energies. This has to do with our being able to internalize them and, therefore, we dream that this website can be a tool " .

The page contains bibliography, information about the different courses, contents and dates of realization of them. Those who carry out the training may have virtual classes and the accompaniment of tutors responsible for answering questions and queries.

"We have a staff of very experienced teachers in each subject who have already participated in many trainings in these years and allow us to carry out these in a blended manner," said Bisso.

Finally, the official said that "it is a great pride that the team of the Undersecretary of Renewable Energies has developed this website, it is all development of the government of the province of Santa Fe, everything is local, from academics to digital issues" .

The presentation was attended by professionals and teachers in charge of training, the technical team of the Undersecretary and Renewable Energies and also representatives of the Union of Light and Strength of Rosario.
