North Carolina Renewable Energy Challenge

North Carolina Renewable Energy Challenge

With funding from the North Carolina Renewable Ocean Energy Program and in partnership with KidWind and Jennette’s Pier, the Coastal Studies Institute (CSI) hosts the day-long North Carolina Renewable Energy Challenge annually on the ECU Outer Banks Campus in Wanchese. This year’s event will include wind and underwater turbine competitions with upper elementary & middle (grades 4-8)and high school (grades 9-12) divisions for each. The competition aims to increase engineering solutions for the alternative energies available in North Carolina.

Funding is available for basic competition materials and travel to CSI. If teams wish to have funding for either, please contact Parker Murphy and John McCord.
