earth, the final frontier

Clean Energy, Clean Environment

We are at a cross roads in human history, we can choose to continue on as we have been, or we can make a change to improve our future and quite possibly the future for several generations to come. We are here to promote energy independence, a better environment, a secure future and a higher return on investment for your hard earned dollar. It is what I believe in, it is why I am in the solar business.

Successful Solar Business course

31 Jul 07 | Solar Electric, Training

Solar Energy International has a Successful Solar Business course which is given a few times a year. The course is taught by a contractor with over 25 years in the solar energy business. It sounds like a great way to figure out how to get a fledgling solar business off the ground:

The PV market is ripe for growth! If you are considering launching a business in solar, do not miss this opportunity to meet and talk to successful solar business leaders in our country. Students will have a chance to learn what works and what doesn’t, and will walk away with the tools to start their new business. This workshop has an emphasis on PV installation businesses, but also will look at roles of distributors, solar thermal business, manufacturing, and international opportunities.

Topics Include

  • Typical Business Models
  • Solar Career Choices
  • Advertising & Marketing
  • Start-up Business Plan Models
  • Financing a Business
  • Setting up Accounts
  • Inventory
  • Business Taxes
  • Certifications & Licensing
  • Successful Solar Policies
  • Successful Case Studies
  • System Life Cost Analysis

It seems like a lot of good information. The next course is scheduled for September 24-27, 2007 at the Sandy Hook Educational Center, Sandy Hook, NJ. I have enrolled and look forward to picking the instructors brain on everything I can think of.

I will do a post course evaluation when I get back.
