  STEM in the Installation

  From September 11, 2020 00:00 until December 04, 2020 00:00

  This is a project for teams of S6 pupils (max of 6 pupils per team). It is a three-month project that this year will be entirely digital. In addition, TechFest is excited to announce that this project has undergone an extensive revamp. The project now focusses on how the Energy Industry is transitioning to reduce carbon emissions as much as possible, as part of the global movement towards net zero. Inspired by CNOOC Internationals Buzzard Platform, students are challenged to develop a proposal to install and connect an offshore wind farm to the facility, which will generate power for the installation and reduce the amount of gas import required to provide electricity.
