A Career with Light and Electricity: Training as an Electronics Technician for Energy and Building Technology What do light switches and power lines, internet connections and alarm systems have in common? They are all designed, installed, maintained, and repaired by electronics technicians for energy and building technology. This apprenticeship is perfect for true all-rounders who enjoy being active and prefer spending less time at a desk – although that's occasionally necessary, for example, to create documentation and evaluate test reports. The successor to the traditional electrician offers much more than just installing sockets: Our highly technological, modern buildings contain sophisticated energy systems that you, as an electronics technician for energy and building technology, will be responsible for maintaining. From indoor climate and ventilation to alarm systems and telephone connections, all the way to control systems, it's all part of the job. No wonder the job prospects after training as an electronics technician for energy and building technology are excellent.
