Energy Smart Students Make A World Of Difference!

The Energy Smart Students Program provides teachers and students with opportunities to learn about energy and its impact on the environment and economy. It offers curricula and hands-on applications-based instructional support for classroom lessons in energy and energy efficiency.

We seek teachers as partners in educating our youth to carry the message of energy efficiency home. We offer workshops to raise your Energy IQ – and increase your ability to promote understanding and action among your students.
