SEIA Adelaide venue.<\/p><\/div>\n

It’s a tough job, but someone has to show up at the yacht club\u2014strictly for work, of course. The Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) roadshow has just swung through Adelaide, and once again, I, your dedicated SolarQuotes installer and blogger, was there. Not for the cold beers and sea breeze, mind you, but to get the scoop on what’s new, from the who’s who in solar. Read on as I explain how this is both a fun day out and critical to maintaining industry excellence.

The SEIA doesn’t run these shows as promotional vehicles for vendors. While the presenters are industry insiders, some with products to sell, their primary role is sharing information, clarifying regulations, and presenting new concepts.<\/p>\n

For installers, SEIA offers great value; you’re not spending time and money on sales frippery.<\/p>\n

The Importance Of Compliance<\/h2>\n

Once you’ve done four years of hard graft as an apprentice, completed TAFE training and passed a capstone assessment, an electrical license is yours for life. Solar is different, though. Fast-moving rules, technology and products mean knowledge quickly goes stale.<\/p>\n

As a relatively new discipline, solar is tightly regulated. C<\/strong>ontinual P<\/strong>ersonal D<\/strong>evelopment is key to keeping everyone on their toes, so every year, I and all other solar sparkies have to accumulate 100 CPD points to prove we’re still interested. One way to earn CPD points is by attending events like this.<\/p>\n

The guys from Sigenergy weren’t handing out merch but they did have hardware on display.<\/p>\n
