🎥 Hear it directly from the teachers and students who participated!

What happens when students become energy investigators? They collect real data, use professional energy-auditing equipment, explore STEM careers, and help their schools better understand energy use.

The K-12 Energy Benchmarking Project isn't just another classroom activity—it's a chance for students to solve real-world problems and see how science, technology, engineering, and math work together.

💡 Hands-on investigations
📊 Real data collection
🏫 Meaningful impact in your school
🚀 Career-connected learning

Applications for the 2026-2027 K-12 Energy Benchmarking Project are now open!
