Exploring Renewables – Out Reach Activities for Students and Teachers

Wind Energy Research

Students from Northern Oklahoma College presented at the 2023 DWEA Conference on Wind Energy research supported by FedEx and RePowering Schools.  Students went to Washington, DC to present the material and were able to interact with other students, industrial professionals, and individuals working on legislative initiatives.

Renewable Energy Research

NOC is participating in a number of student-led research projects related to renewable energy.  Pictured here are students building the research apparatus to investigate the impacts of wildfire on renewable energy components to help improve the overall grid resiliency.  This research is being conducted in cooperation with Oklahoma State and the ESPCOR program.  Students participating in this research have the opportunity to work with Oklahoma State students and research groups.  Additional research opportunities are available.
