about oep
Unleash the Power of Energy Education
Relevant, informative, fun — that’s energy education from the Ohio Energy Project. Created by teachers for teachers, OEP has been energizing classrooms with hands-on, interactive learning tools and programs since 1984. View OEP’s 2018 Annual Report.
Our Expertise Grows School Programs
We bring the latest in the energy field to teachers and students in a way that makes everyone take notice by working with utilities, the State of Ohio, nonprofit organizations, energy organizations, universities, manufacturers and others.
Aligned to ODE Academic Content Standards
OEP energy education programs follow Ohio Department of Education requirements, making them the perfect teaching resource. We provide lesson plans, professional development – some with graduate credit – and special events and workshops, all deemed “first class” by Ohio teachers.
National Knowledge, Local Funding
OEP is the state affiliate of the National Energy Education Development Project (NEED). We partner with NEED to provide Ohio educators with excellent curriculums, resources and programs. The Ohio Energy Project is funded through local grants and partnerships with businesses, governments and foundations.
