Energy storage is a critical enabler of Ireland’s renewable energy transition. As the sector expands, so too does the demand for a skilled workforce capable of designing, operating and maintaining modern storage systems.
Join Green Tech Skillnet and leading training providers for a focused, one‑hour webinar exploring the skills, micro‑credentials and practical programmes now available to support talent development across the energy storage value chain.
This session brings together experts from ATU, MTU, InnoEnergy and ESI to outline training pathways — from introductory online modules to hands‑on technical qualifications. Attendees will gain a clear understanding of the opportunities in the sector, the competencies employers are seeking, and how these courses can accelerate career progression.
