Today, the Office of State and Community Energy Programs (SCEP) at the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) announced 25 Phase 1 Winners of the Energy Champions Leading the Advancement of Sustainable Schools Prize (Energy CLASS Prize).
The Energy CLASS Prize is a two-phase, $4.5 million competitive award promoting energy management in school districts across America. The competition was designed to help some of the nation’s highest-need K-12 schools make critical clean energy and health improvements by establishing, training, and supporting energy managers – or Champions – in their districts.
Phase 1 Winners will each receive $100,000 in cash prizes, along with coaching and skills development from professionals in the newly-established Energy CLASS Prize Training Network. At the end of Phase 2, based on their performance, Phase 1 Winners will be eligible for an additional $50,000 in funding.
