Solar Photovoltaic (PV) systems are at the heart of the renewable energy movement, converting sunlight directly into electricity and reducing reliance on traditional power sources. As energy costs rise and the UK pushes toward net-zero targets, the demand for skilled solar professionals has grown dramatically across both domestic and commercial sectors.

At Lomax, we’re proud to offer high-quality, hands-on Solar PV training designed to help electricians take advantage of this surge in opportunity.

Our course provides the practical skills and technical understanding needed to install, maintain and inspect solar systems safely and efficiently, setting you up for a future in one of the fastest-growing industries in the country.

Installing solar panels takes precision, skill, and a strong electrical background. It’s a hands-on, rewarding trade that’s driving the shift to cleaner energy, and it comes with huge earning potential and growing opportunities across the UK. Think you’ve got what it takes?

Completing this Solar PV course can open doors to a fast-growing, future-proof career. Skilled solar installers and maintenance engineers are in high demand as the UK rapidly expands its renewable energy capacity, adding over 2 GW in just a year. Many professionals now earn around £35,000–£40,000 annually, with even higher potential as experience grows. The shift to clean energy isn’t slowing down; now it’s your chance to be part of it.
