Our Vision and Objectives

Our vision and objectives provides the Southern African Energy Efficiency Confederation (SAEEC) opportunities to partners with organisations with aligned interests to deliver training in the energy efficiency, energy management, renewable energy, and efficient use of resources towards sustainable and environmentally beneficial business practices.

As the official Chapter of the Association of Energy Engineers (AEE) for the Southern African Region, the Southern African Energy Efficiency Confederation (SAEEC) is the training administration service provider for local courses, including the international certification programmes for the Association of Energy Engineers (AEE) in South Africa.

The trainings we offer is greatly beneficial for AEE certification renewals, which is administered by the Institute of Energy Professionals Africa (IEPA) for the Sub-Saharah African Region.

Training available from beginners to advanced training, as well as specialisation training offered by The Southern African Energy Efficiency Confederation (SAEEC)

PHOTOVOLTAIC SOLAR COURSES

·         SAPVIA Greencard Installers Training

·         Solar PV Excite

·         Solar PV Excel

·         Solar PV Surge

 

The SAPVIA Solar PV GreenCard  is an industry led quality label that is inclusive in nature and becomes the key to ensure a high standard of quality for small-scale Solar PV installations. The PV GreenCard is set to become a national, standardised hand-over or “as built” report for roof-top PV installations, aimed at improving the safety and quality of installations.

 

With PQRS courses get to choose where to go next, all geared towards the growth and development of the PV sector. The focus is on Small scale embedded generation in the C&I (Commercial and Industrial) and Domestic sector.

  • Solar PV Excite is for the small business owner interested in experimenting in the sector and covers very small systems both grid-tied and off-grid.
  • Solar PV Excel has a more commercial focus and looks at the design principles of larger residential and commercial solar PV systems.
  • Solar PV Excel Online is our popular Excel course with additional video content to supplement the information presented during a live webinar session that makes the course interactive.
  • Solar PV Surge Online is a short 1 day surge protection and earthing course specifically for solar PV systems.

 

 

OTHER COURSES

·         Retscreen

·         PQRS Training Modules

·         Basic Principles of Energy (BPE)

·         Introduction to Energy Management Training (IEMT)

·         Energy Performance Certificate (EPC)

 

The RETScreen Software is an intelligent decision support tool to enable stakeholders to rapidly identify, assess, optimize and track the performance of clean energy investments over the entire project life cycle.

 

It is always a good idea to start with the basics and good that you recognise this should you not have much experience in the Energy Industry. So Basic Principles of Energy (BPE) is the first building block. The Introduction to Energy management (IEMT) refreshes all the mechanical, electrical, chemical, thermodynamic and energy management basic principles. Once you have completed that you can decide which area you would like to specialise in:

  • The Measurement & Verification market – a new developing industry in SA.
  • Energy management market.
  • Energy Auditing.
  • Or Renewable energy

 

The Minster of Mineral Resources and Energy has, under section 19(1)(b) of the National Energy Act, published regulations for the mandatory display and submission of Energy Performance Certificates (EPC) for buildings in Notice 700 of Government Gazette 43792 of 8 December 2020. Briefly, if you own or are responsible for a building which has a total net floor area of over 1,000m2 in the public sector and 2,000m2 in the private sector, then these regulations do affect you. The energy performance rating on the EPC refers to the net energy consumed in kWh per m2 per annum.
