University of Connecticut Entry - IEEE SmartGrid Competition

Our SmartGrid demonstration unit, originally built to serve as an educational tool for grades K-12, now entered in the IEEE SmartGridComm student video competition.

Built from the ground up by a team of several undergrads as a semester long project, the SmartGrid Demonstration Unit is used as an interactive and educational tool that allows the younger generation to get a very basic understanding and help fuel interest in SmartGrid technology.
