About this Event
During Louisiana Wind Energy Week, we invite you to attend the KidWind Challenge, a collaborative showcase celebrating our university's partnership with KidWind and high schools across Orleans Parish under the WE LEAD NOLA program. This event highlights student innovation and renewable energy education in our community.
The challenge is a hands-on design competition in which high school teams present their small-scale wind turbine structure designs. Students, led by their teachers, will build and test their prototypes in real-time throughout the morning with oversight by KidWind director, Michael Arquin, and his team.
Teams will also have the opportunity to present to the judges to explain their designs and reasoning for developing the wind tunnel and floating environments. Testing will commence at 1 and announcements and awards will be presented between 1:30 and 2
The winning team will earn the chance to compete at KidWind Worlds, where they will represent our region against teams from over 60 cities nationwide.
