WHAT IS KIDWIND CHALLENGE?
The KidWind Challenge is an exciting competition where students explore wind energy and develop creative solutions. Students develop practical STEM skills, enhance engineering thinking, and solve real-world problems, supporting Estonia’s transition to renewable energy.
Student teams design and build small wind turbines and solar energy devices, and then meet with a panel of judges to present their designs.
The KidWind Challenge is a collaborative effort of teachers, students, engineers, and practitioners, all working to make wind energy and other renewable energy education available in classrooms around the world.
