Communicating Renewable Energy

Renewable energy is a vital part of our future energy strategy. Despite widespread public support, opposition and misinformation continues to exist in the UK.

• Discuss the role and importance of renewable energy systems in a low carbon future.
• Make a case for local renewable energy projects to the media, local people or a group of councillors.
• Describe accessibly various types of renewable energy systems (wind, solar renewable energy systems such as solar PV, solar thermal, heat pumps, biomass, wave, tidal).
• Answer critical questions in ways that will help those who are confused.
• Feel confident in supporting people looking to make decisions about installing a system for their home, business or community organisation.

Who should attend?

The course is suitable for anyone keen to get their facts straight on a variety of renewable energy systems and how to communicate them effectively to a varied audience. Whether you are a business looking to increase your quality of advice, a local authority or organisation promoting the use of renewables and sustainability, or an independent consultant looking to increase your knowledge, this course will provide you with the key skills needed.
