Built for Anyone Ready to Get Hands-On

If you've ever wondered what it actually takes to install, wire, and troubleshoot a solar power system — not just read about it — this 2-week workshop is built around exactly that. 90% of your time is spent on the practical floor, working hands-on with real solar modules, charge controllers, and batteries on an 80kW training plant, rather than sitting through theory-heavy lectures.

The course is open to absolutely anyone, regardless of background — students, technicians, working professionals, and especially aspiring entrepreneurs looking for a fast, practical entry point into India's solar industry. In fact, 9 out of 10 graduates from this workshop go on to start their own solar installation business.
