Hands-on Solar Design and Installation Workshop Set for Aug. 15-16

In partnership with Dixon Power Systems, Nebraska Extension is hosting a solar design and installation workshop on Thursday, Aug. 15 and Friday, Aug. 16.

Open to the public, the workshop will cover basic solar design, installation and economic analysis of grid-connected behind the meter solar PV systems. Additionally, there will be a brief introduction to battery systems. Both classroom and hands-on sessions will step through the process of evaluation through installation. This workshop will be valuable for people interested in exploring a DIY project or gaining knowledge to evaluate the feasibility of having a project installed at their home.

The workshop will be 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. CT each day at 102 Splinter Labs, UNL East Campus, Lincoln, Nebraska.

Those interested in attending should register online by Friday, Aug. 2. The workshop is $250 for an individual, $350 for a married couple, and $220 for students.
