Accepting applications for student projects
focusing on energy science, technology and education
Constellation today announced that it is accepting applications
for its 2015 E2 Energy to Educate Grants program. Since its
inception in 2010, the program has provided over $1.8 million in
funding for student projects that have enhanced the understanding
of energy-related science and technology issues for an estimated
88,000 students.
Students in grades six through 12 can apply for program grants
up to $25,000; students in two- and four-year colleges can apply
for up to $50,000. Applications are now being accepted, and the
deadline for submissions is Oct. 1, 2015.
"Education and creativity are essential for developing the
solutions required to create a greener energy future,” said Joseph
Nigro, CEO of Constellation. "We’re proud to support research and
education programs that help prepare students for the energy
opportunities that lie ahead and to build the science, math and
technology skills they need to be successful in any career.”
In 2014, the program awarded $340,000 and reached nearly 7,000
students nationwide. The student projects included developing
demand response technologies, model electric vehicle competitions,
renewable energy and energy efficiency analysis, and many other
topics.
To qualify for an E2 grant, a project must be team-oriented and
reach a minimum of 100 students.
