Welcome to the Kansas Wind Application Center (WAC) website, a place where schools can come to find out more about renewable energy in Kansas. Although the Kansas WAC has been around for a while, we at the Kansas Energy Program (KEP) only began operating it in 2017. Its mission has evolved over the years. Take a quick look around to find out more about how we can help!
What do we do? KEP uses funding from NREL and other sources to accomplish the following:
engages rural K-12 schools to talk about wind and other forms of renewable energy
assists communities in implementing sustainable school wind energy projects
provides the resources to effectively advance science education in a way that is appealing and accessible to students and teachers
simultaneously advances education and workforce development
