2012 – founding of the maxx-academy

The maxx-academy, an independent training center for solar technology was founded together with the DGS Solar School Thuringia.

To date, almost 3500 course participants at more than 8 different locations throughout Africa have been trained.

The rapidly progressing climate change requires a much faster switch to renewable energies. To support this development accordingly, the classroom (face to face) training courses will be continued by the GREEN Solar Academy at the existing (maxx) academy locations – now 100% manufacturer-independent.

MAXX SOLAR & ENERGY GmbH & CO. KG develops the maxx-solar-online-academy with new, digital online content and training offers for a global target group. Both solar academies continue to pursue the common goal of training as many specialists as possible in the field of solar energy.
