Through their upcoming solar and wind energy projects, the EcoTarium, a science and discovery center in Worcester, Massachusetts, seeks to help people overcome their uncertainties towards renewable energy. Therefore, the goal of this project was to aid the EcoTarium in the design stages of their wind and solar energy exhibitions. Through these exhibitions, the EcoTarium hopes to promote the understanding, accepting, and adopting of renewable technologies in the Worcester community and beyond and help contribute to a clean energy future.
