Congratulations to the 12 collegiate teams who won Phase 2 of the 2024 U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Collegiate Wind Competition!
These teams will receive a cash prize of up to $15,000 per team and will advance to the third and final phase of CWC 2024. Over the next few months, they will complete the wind turbine prototype design reports and wind farm site designs they started during Phase 2. They will also build and test their turbine prototypes and continue to build connections with the wind energy industry and their communities. Then, this spring, they will attend the CWC 2024 final event, which will be held in conjunction with the American Clean Power Association’s CLEANPOWER Conference and Exhibition in Minneapolis.
Read the announcement from DOE's Wind Energy Technologies Office to find out which teams won Phase 2 of CWC 2024.
Best of luck, teams! We can’t wait to see you present your work at the final event this spring!
