SNOW HILL Geared toward
two popular fields in Worcester
County, the Renewable Energy
STEM Academy program at Wor-
cester Technical High School (WT-
HS) summarized its first year in
front of the Board of Education
this week.
The five-course program has
made big strides in only a few
months, according to organizers,
including developing industry part-
nerships and reducing the electric
bill at WTHS. According to Re-
newable Energy Instructor Ed
Stough, the five courses included
in the program are Renewable En-
ergy and Green Technology, Solar
Photo-voltaic, Solar Thermal,
Wind and Other Energy Systems,
Bio-fuels and Bio-Mass.
"Students enrolled in the Re-
newable Energy and Green Tech-
nology course this spring have
been charged with the task of au-
diting our school to find ways to
reduce energy consumption,"
wrote Stough in a memo to the
board. "They have looked at the
different areas of energy usage
and given suggestions for cost
savings measures."
That course has been more
than just an academic exercise,
added Stough, with student sug-
gestions actually leading to a
lower energy bill.
"As of right now, we've reduced
the electric bill in the building by
7.5 percent," he said. "Without a
doubt, if we get done with the rec-
ommendations, we'll hit over 10
percent."
That translates to a reduction of
5.95 percent in kWh from January
through March as well.
WTHS student Luke Warrington
shared some of his group's prog-
ress with the board. Because of
the program, changes were made
to how electronics are powered
down as well as how bright lights
are in the building.
"The first thing we did was put
light restrictors in the classroom,"
said Warrington.
The other four courses are in
the same "green technology" vein
as Renewable Energy but expand
the program in other alternative
energy directions. Solar Photovol-
taic will go into the different kinds
of solar power systems that pro-
duce electricity while Solar Ther-
mal will explain how heat is gener-
ated through solar power.
Wind and Other Energy Systems
"covers using wind, geo-thermal,
hydro and other sources to produce
electricity," said Stough. The final
course, Bio-fuels and Bio-mass,
takes a look at the potential for
crops and plants to replace fossil
fuels as a source of clean energy.
The success of the program
has attracted interest from the al-
ternative energy industry as well
as other educators.
"We are pleased that the Re-
newable Energy program has
generated both higher education
and industry interest. Worcester
Technical High School and Wor-
Wic Community College have
partnered in an articulation agree-
ment," Stough told the board.
"Del-Tech has also shown an in-
terest in articulation. Salisbury Un-
iversity has asked for our course
syllabi and program outline in
order to consider starting a Re-
newable Energy Engineering pro-
gram at the graduate level."
Additionally, Paradise Energies,
Flexera and Choptank Electric are
"on board as industry partners,"
according to Stough.
"The nicest thing is we are not
going out and selling this. People
are calling us," he said.
According to Stough, WTHS is
the first in Maryland to participate in
the Renewable Energy STEM Aca-
demy at the high school level and is
one of the first 10 to do so in the
entire country. The early achieve-
ments have even, coincidently,
caught the eye of a technical high
school in Worcester, Mass., which
has reached out to form a partner-
ship next year with WTHS.
