Alternative Energy

Workers trained in green and alternative technologies are highly attractive assets. Oxygen Education is currently developing a series of training modules that will give learners the background and technical expertise to help employers reduce operating costs and increase efficiencies by implementing emerging green and alternative energy applications.  Learners completing these online learning modules will be fully versed in how different alternative energy technologies work and how they can be implemented to reduce operating costs and increase efficiencies across organizations and working environments.

Sample Alternative Energy Content

The following abstracts describe Oxygen Education online training modules for Alternative Energy currently under development. Contact us for the complete Oxygen Education Content Library.

Battery and Storage Systems

Provides learners the skills and knowledge needed to understand battery technology from basic electronics and battery chemistry to manufacturing and practical application of batteries in today's high-tech industries.

Smart-Grid Technologies

The next generation power grid – the Smart-Grid – incorporates two-way digital technology and advanced solid-state materials to create a more intelligent, responsive, and efficient power system.  The Smart-Grid Technology module helps learners address global concerns about energy independence, environmental conservation, emergency resilience, and power system security.

Solar Energy Concepts and Systems

Focuses on helping learners understand how solar energy is collected by illustrating the factors that affect the efficiency of solar energy collection systems. Provides an overview of how solar photovoltaic and thermal cells generate power for homes and businesses.

Wind Energy Concepts and Systems

Identifies how wind turbines capture kinetic energy, transform it into electricity, and the factors that contribute to the energy output capacity of a wind turbine.  Also addresses appropriate applications for different types of wind turbines and installation and maintenance techniques for facilities of all sizes.
