Is there anyone out there who can give some info about solar pv installer certification in SA? In the USA they have NABCEP which does this for people who have some solar pv experience. I'm a trade tested and qualified electrician from Zim and currently working in solar pv design and installation and I've attended some two day training courses in the industry. How does one become a certified solar pv installer certified from system design all the way to commissioning?
