The Hopkins Student Wind Energy Team is made up of students from a variety of academic backgrounds. Our participation in the U.S. Department of Energy’s 2024 Collegiate Wind Competition (CWC) serves multiple purposes: converting academic theory into practical applications, fostering connections among students, and providing mentorship opportunities within the wind energy community. Our team, which was established in 2020, has evolved to 45 active members.
In previous years, our university earned recognition for second place overall at the 2021 CWC, first place in project development in the 2022 CWC, and first place in turbine design at the 2023 CWC. We envision an energy future driven by interdisciplinary collaboration. With guidance from wind energy professionals and researchers, the Hopkins Student Wind Energy Team is poised to make significant contributions to the advancement of renewable practices in the wind energy industry.
