It’s so inspiring to hear about events like EnergyWhiz that are getting young people actively engaged with energy research and innovation. The diversity of projects mentioned – from solar sprints to carbon sequestration using salps – is truly impressive. It’s particularly exciting to see students exploring real-world applications and demonstrating ways to address current energy challenges.

I especially like the sounds of of the Solar Energy Cookoff – What a fun and engaging way to apply scientific principles! Events like these are crucial for fostering the next generation of energy leaders by providing hands on experiences and igniting imaginations. Hopefully, efforts like Brook Rumenik (director of Florida’s Office of Energy) see their efforts snowball creating even greater opportunities and investments to similar events for the coming generations. Thanks to FSEC for hosting such a vital and exciting event!
