KidWind Challenge

The KidWind Project consists of a team exploring the science behind wind and other renewable forms of energy.

The goal is to make renewable energy widely accessible through hands-on activities that are challenging, engaging, and teach basic science and engineering principles.

Students dedicate their year of engagement to building a small turbine to produce as much power as possible.

They are tasked with thinking about the best construction techniques and the most innovative design to make their turbine operate.

This program is open to high school NSBE Jr. members with students in grades 9-12. NSBE’s KidWind Challenge competition takes place at the Annual Convention.
