What is accreditation?
Solar PV accreditation is a qualification that demonstrates competence in design and/or installation of stand-alone (SPS) and/or grid-connected (GC) solar photovoltaic power systems.
The aims of the accreditation scheme are -
- to increase the uptake of solar photovoltaic power systems for the provision of energy services, by giving customers increased confidence in the design and installation work;
- to improve the safety, performance and reliability of solar photovoltaic power systems installed in the field;
- to encourage industry Best Practice for all design and installation work involving solar photovoltaic power systems (see Accreditation Standards and Accreditation Rules);
- to provide a network of competent solar photovoltaic power systems designers and installers.
