Low-Income Energy Affordability Data (LEAD) Tool

Abstract

The Low-income Energy Affordability Data (LEAD) tool was created to provide data, such as energy burden, to stakeholders to make data driven decisions. The LEAD Tool provides a starting point for local governments, NGOs, companies, etc. to find areas with higher energy burden and cost to inform decisions about funding distribution and program qualifications. This presentation was given to energy efficiency and conservation block grant program applicants to explain how this tool can help them develop their energy efficiency and conservation strategy.

Experiments and Project-Based Enhancements for STEM Learning

Motivating K-12 students to pursue careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) is an effort that requires consistent engagement. Throughout the K-12 student timeline, STEM educators need to continuously pivot their teaching and update their educational materials to motivate the next generation of students. Once students begin their undergraduate education, university professors need to encourage them to consider pursuing graduate studies to ensure that a qualified future workforce can be developed for research and teaching. In this paper, we present our work on developing STEM materials for K-12 student engagement. Our K-12 materials target the grid integration of hydrogen assets that are suitable to engage students in the classroom. Our undergraduate materials target hands-on projects and collaboration with industry to connect classroom learning with real-world applications and needs in renewable energy. Our work leverages available open-source models and tools to create projects for undergraduate students and motivate their interest in pursuing research topics in graduate-level education.
