Congratulations to the 12 winners of Phase 2 of the 2025 U.S. Department of Energy’s Collegiate Wind Competition (CWC)! The Phase 2 winners will receive a cash prize of up to $15,000 per team and advance to the third phase, with final judging to happen alongside the American Clean Power Association’s CLEANPOWER 2025 Conference and Exhibition in Phoenix, Arizona, this May.
Over the next few months, teams will complete designs for a hypothetical floating offshore wind farm, build and test prototype turbines, and build connections within the wind industry and their own communities. (Teams not selected as Phase 2 winners can still participate in the third phase of CWC as learn-along teams but won’t be eligible for the final awards.)
Excited to see everyone in May!
