Real science. Real tools. Real outcomes. Our hands-on projects are mapped to all state standards and Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), with integrated computing practices to prepare every student to understand and manage real-world energy systems.
We map every project to NGSS and your state’s specific science standards, integrating computing and data skills throughout.

16+ lessons16+ hrs
Students take on real stakeholder roles in the grid, then simulate, build, and test a microgrid before defending their design in a technical debate. Along the way they learn how the grid works, how optimization changes when new constraints appear, and how energy pricing shapes the final decision.
