This is the image for the news article titled 2015 Renewable Energy TourThe 8th graders had the opportunity to go on an Energy Field Trip on Tuesday, sponsored by East Central Energy (ECE).  The students were able to see energy conservation and production in action, topics they have studied this year in Science and STEM.  They visited the ECE solar array, Target Field, and the Great River Elk River Resource Processing and Power Plants.  At the solar array the students learned about solar power and how ECE gets the power out to their homes.  At Target Field they learned about sustainability and environmental stewardship in terms of building design and operations.  At the Great River Plants they learned where they garbage goes after it leaves their house and how they turn household garbage into energy.  Thank you to ECE for this amazing opportunity!
