Educational panels around the O’MEGA1 power plant
The project
O’MEGA 1 is an Akuo solar plant located in Piolenc, southern France, and the company’s first based on floating solar technology. To expand its virtuous effects, the Akuo Foundation has developed an educational component in partnership with the local town hall to increase awareness of renewable energy and environmental protection issues among children who use the town’s leisure center
The Learning Path
Thus, every month, a specialized facilitator and Akuo employees attended recreational workshops on topics such as energy, permaculture and biodiversity: planting of vegetables and study of their development, construction of mini wind turbines with recycled materials and models to understand how electricity works… and even a private visit of the site under construction. The children’s achievements inspired Akuo to create an educational path comprising 7 signs around the O’MEGA1 plant. These didactic signs were created using illustrations produced by the children.
