A skills shortage in science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) based professions affects the UK energy and utilities industry. enthuse is an education and work related activity day that seeks to inspire pupils to consider a STEM career. Strategically focused on students considering their GCSE options, enthuse gives students the chance to be engineers or scientists for the day and develops teamwork and problem solving skills.

npower’s investment:
£57,550 cash, £10,500 employee time
