Course content

Given the climate targets that have been set, renewable heating systems such as pellet boilers and pellet stoves will continue to grow in importance over the coming years. Pellet heating systems make an indispensable contribution to the heating transition in the buildings sector. This learning module provides you with a multimedia and interactive introduction to the basics of pellet heating systems. In addition to the key technical background, it also covers the benefits, cost-effectiveness and available funding schemes.

In addition to the learning purpose, this learning module also supports you directly in Counselling interview with customers, because you always have the most important information in the form of infographics, tools, publications, tables and guidelines directly available via separate tabs. This means you can respond quickly to pellet-related questions or any prejudices or objections your customers may have.

There is also the option of a project-related Pellet check to carry out. By answering ten questions, it is possible to quickly assess how well a pellet heater is suited to a particular building or customer.

The German Energy Agency (dena) has recognised the training module „Pellets in Energy Consultancy“ with 6 UE (teaching units).
