A Message from Peter Biondo
You’re not simply here because of my extensive four-decade career in solar thermal technology.
You’re here for a new teaching experience different from anything you have seen before or heard from anyone else. Because I've trained hundreds of engineers, design-build contractors and solar entrepreneurs, I'm well equipped to serve you as a guide to help you build your professional skills and business in solar energy.

"Peter's training style is helpful,
not condescending. His knowledge is immense, yet he is always learning. It's obvious to me, Peter knows what he is teaching because he's done it!"
