With its inaugural webinar on Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), RRC has launched “Energy Tech Talks with RRC,” a series of technical sessions developed for the community of renewable energy professionals. The Energy Tech Talks aim to share the vast pool of industry knowledge accumulated by RRC’s experts with the company’s clients, industry peers, and its own team members and to engage them in a conversation about the present state and the future of renewable energy.
“We saw the need for these webinars in our conversations with clients. The market is growing so quickly, bringing in new talent from multiple adjacent sectors. There are nearly two decades’ worth of industry insight that RRC can share with these new market entrants. As one of the top engineering companies in the renewable space in North America, we welcome all as we push for clean energy independence,” shared Mike Kraft, Senior Vice President for Business Development and Electrical Engineering. “People who’ve worked in renewable energy for some time can stay abreast of the trends and technological advances by attending Energy Tech Talks. Meanwhile, new talent can use our webinars to get acquainted with the sector.”
RRC plans to roll out new webinars monthly. After the initial broadcast, webinars will be available for replay on-demand. All the webinars can be accessed through RRC’s webinar channel, where users can also sign up to receive updates when a new technical session is announced. Registration is free and open to industry professionals. All live and on-demand viewers can request a certificate of attendance, which professional engineers may use toward professional development hours.
Energy Tech Talks will cover a breadth of technical areas for wind, solar, and BESS markets, taking full advantage of RRC experts’ multidisciplinary knowledge. The future webinars will cover project development, geotechnical, structural, civil, electrical, and SCADA engineering, as well as land surveying, private utility locating, construction material testing, and field services. RRC has already held two successful live webinars. The first on trends in the development and implementation of energy storage systems, and the second on how to address poor quality and workmanship on solar installations. Both webinars are now available on demand.
The next live webinar, “Sizing and Optimizing PV/BESS for Remote Locations,” is scheduled for December 06, 2023.
