All curriculum, projects, or events that specifically support ENERGY education are eligible. This includes salmon education due to the large percentage of hydropower in the PUD power portfolio and the financial support PUD ratepayers provide for salmon protection and restoration.
Examples of eligible Energy Education projects or events:
- Learn about solar energy by building solar cars, making solar ovens or being creative with solar paper or beads.
- Conduct experiments with purchased wind turbines.
- Use hand-crank flashlight generators to teach about electrical generation and energy transformation.
- Add books about energy to your school library.
- Come up with an energy-themed project for your school’s science night.
- Build electrical circuits or other battery-powered projects.
- Purchase LED lights to use in addition to incandescent lights when teaching about circuits.
- Create an energy conservation calendar or produce a play for your school or school district.
- Raise salmon in your classroom.
