Class of 2021 graduating seniors: scholarship applications are now being accepted for the 2021 Megawatt Scholarship season!
If you’re a high school senior in one of the communities of our Wind for Industry projects, and you plan to pursue a two or four-year degree in a science, technology, engineering, or math (STEM) field – head to the scholarship site to see if you’re eligible to apply!
One Energy and our Wind for Industry customers partner to offer one $5,000 scholarship for each wind turbine at a customer’s facility – for every year the turbine is in operation. To date, more than 50 scholarships have been awarded to outstanding area students – and with 20-year turbine lifetimes, we’re just getting started.
Our Wind for Industry project customers determine the specific application criteria, select the qualified candidates, and award the scholarships to recipients each spring.
In addition to the one-time $5,000 award, recipients are recognized with their names permanently displayed on a turbine at the company’s facility. This scholarship program is a part of One Energy’s commitment to being good corporate citizens and building lasting relationships with our customers, as well as with the communities where we operate.
When you see wind turbines, think scholarships.
