The aim of Planète Énergies, an initiative of the TotalEnergies Foundation, is to help people better understand the energy transition challenges and raise their awareness of how to consume energy more responsibly.
A program suited to the younger generations, their teachers, their parents, and, in fact, anyone interested in energy issues. Encouraging as many people as possible to learn about energies also means encouraging debate.
More than 500 videos, games, infographics and feature reports are available on the website to allow students from fourth grade to twelfth grade to supplement and revise their lessons or prepare their presentations and exams.
What is Planète Énergies, and what are its goals?
Planète Énergies is an initiative dedicated to raising awareness and educating people of all ages about the various aspects of energy, its sources, and its environmental impacts, with the primary goals of promoting the energy transition, encouraging energy efficiency, and fostering a comprehensive understanding of energy-related issues within the context of sustainable development.
How does Planète Énergies contribute to the energy transition?
Planète Énergies contributes to the energy transition by providing educational resources and up-to-date information on renewable energy, technological innovations, and energy policies, thereby raising awareness among the general public, students, and teachers to adopt sustainable practices and reduce their carbon footprint.
What types of educational resources does Planète Énergies offer to the general publi?
Planète Énergies offers a variety of educational resources for the general public, including informative articles, infographics, educational videos, and interactive quizzes, aimed at raising awareness and providing information on global energy issues.
Planète Énergies also has a dedicated space for teachers.
This space provides them with totally free teaching resources to enhance or illustrate their lessons and the possibility to organize conferences in class. These dynamic, interactive conferences last one and half to two hours, including time for questions/answers.
Each year, in the French department of the Pyrénées-Atlantiques, employees of the TotalEnergies Pau Site take an active role in giving conferences in schools.
One of the lecturers, Christophe Ressiguie, explains: "I've been a lecturer for the Planète Énergies program from the very beginning and I appreciate the opportunity given to me by the Company to take part in an awareness-raising initiative for young people. I'm particularly sensitive to environmental challenges, to the management of our consumption and the role of energies in our daily lives, which is why I set great store by passing on knowledge and taking about these topics. It has become essential for me to regularly give lectures on these subjects and hold discussions with the students, listening attentively to their questions."
Planète Énergies’ resources are based on school programs and regularly updated. In class, the students discover and study energies in a fun and innovative way.
