Why pursue training in renewable energy?
An energy source is considered renewable when it uses a local natural resource that is available in unlimited quantities: wind (wind energy), sun (thermal energy for hot water, photovoltaic energy for electricity), wood, algae, and biomass (used for combustion to produce heat and/or electricity, or for methanization to produce biogas), seawater, groundwater and rivers (hydraulic dams, geothermal energy, tidal stream energy, tidal energy, wave energy, etc.). In this respect, they are opposed to fossil fuels (coal, oil, gas), which are neither derived from natural resources (in the sense that they are the result of a natural process that took a very long time), nor local, nor unlimited, nor climate-neutral.
The French roadmap identifies renewable energy as one of the key areas for achieving the European goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by at least 55% by 2030 compared to 1990 levels. Whether you’re working on thermal or electrical projects, become an expert in either of these fields with our AFNOR Compétences training programs!
