Welcome to Hudson Valley  Energy Breakout!

Driving Question

How can we use our Science knowledge to design virtual escape rooms in order to inform the community about energy concepts for Central Hudson?

Project-Based Learning Storyline

The power grid keeps everything running, but sometimes signal disruptions or force imbalances can cause power loss. Central Hudson engineers need your help!

As junior systems engineers, you’ll design a virtual breakout game where players solve puzzles using what they know about forces, motion, energy and waves to support the grid.

Your mission: Design, test, and refine a breakout that shows how forces, energy and waves work together to keep the power grid stable.

💡 Final Challenge

Share your breakout with Central Hudson staff for feedback, then publish your final design on the Central Hudson Kids Corner webpage to teach others how physics keeps our world powered.
