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.
