Escuela de energía solar (EES) is an independent solar energy school to provide solar energy education oriented to Spanish speaking people. Our mission in EES is to teach and train people with basic school background or more to design, install and maintain solar energy systems and other renewable energy technologies. We also train in the usage of natural construction materials for economic home building.
We also seek in the long term, that ecology teaching becomes an integral part of children education, and give this ecology education no less importance than English or computers, in a way that future generations can stop damaging the earth.

Nothing definite is planned for next year since our videographer son is busy in his last year of university. And we’ve run out of land to build on. I will do training for small groups using practice walls.
Check out Phangan Earthworks in southern Thailand. They have good trainers and a great site on Koh Phangan island that’s very popular: http://www.phanganearthworks.com/workshops.html
