Power Plant
We provide training that gives you, or your operations team, a thorough understanding of plant capabilities and risks at CCGT, Energy Recovery (from Waste or Biomass) or Coal fired Generation Plants.
Our experienced trainers have a vast knowledge of all aspects of Power Plant Operation, including Gas, Biomass, Energy from Waste, CHP,
and Coal Power Plant.
This means we can train you to operate the plant safely and increase plant efficiency, along with giving the learners the confidence to deal with any situation swiftly, effectively and, most importantly, take proactive action to prevent problems occurring in the future.

Our open course offering supports a selection of our course portfolio and is open to the public. The dates are scheduled annually each year and held at our facility. This option is most cost effective for clients with low demand or if they struggle with releasing the learners all at one time.
Our closed courses are delivered solely for a client and can be held at our facility or at a desired site to the client. We can deliver our generic courses, or develop a course more site specific. We recommend trying to fill these courses to make them more cost effective.
