Metros
Solar technician training by metro market
The metro decides the utility, the permitting office, the roof type and the weather that breaks things. These profiles cover the markets with the most solar service work in progress.
Why is the metro more useful than the state for service work?
Because the utility, the permitting authority and the building stock are metro-level facts. Interconnection rules in Austin differ from the rest of Texas, and Chicago runs its own electrical code separate from Illinois.
