Wind, Wave, and Solar Device CompetitionMarch 12, 2026 9:00am-2:00pm, Hatfield Marine Science Center (HMSC)
Join students from coastal communities in a challenge to innovate and build renewable energy devices at this annual daylong competition! Teams from grades 3rd-12th are invited to create wind, wave and solar devices and test them in our facilities.
