Pretty high level and focus mostly on entrepreneurship rather than renewable energy as a topic, but a good place to start if you want to be an entrepreneur in this space and don't know where to start!

Great course!

It teaches you a lot about Green Building and not only that, bus also how to start a business successfully. Killing two (or more) birds with one stone.

I appreciate.
