Constellation today awarded $410,000 E2 Energy to Educate Grants
for projects focusing on energy science, technology and education,
as part of Constellation’s and parent company Exelon’s commitment
to giving back to the communities where they work and live, and
driving greater interest in STEM programs.
The 18 projects that were awarded grants will reach more than
27,000 students, in grade 6 through college.
Student projects include a public electric vehicle charging
station, an energy storing water reservoir, a hydrogen energy
storage system and a solar-powered computer system that enables
access to fresh fruits and vegetables. For the complete list of
winning projects from 11 different states, visit E2 Energy to
Educate Grants.
"Energy innovation and creativity are essential to what we do
every day,” said Joe Nigro, CEO, Constellation. “It’s a privilege
to support and celebrate this year’s grant recipients for
exhibiting their own innovation and creativity. That level of
passion — in areas such as science, math, and technology — will
foster the energy leaders of tomorrow.”
Constellation’s focus on community aligns with its parent
company, Exelon Corporation, named among the nation’s 50 most
community-minded companies by Points of Light. Exelon companies,
together with Constellation, contributed more than $46 million to
nonprofits in 2016 supporting education, the environment, culture
and arts and community development.
Since its inception in 2010, Constellation’s Energy to Educate
grants program has provided more than $3 million in funding for 103
student projects that have enhanced the understanding of
energy-related science and technology issues. Grant recipients are
announced each year during American Education Week.
