Today's K-12 environment is vastly different than it was as recently as a decade ago, not to mention 30 or 40 years ago when many facilities were built, and the need for electricity is enormous. Children as young as first graders have access to technology that adults could only have imagined when they were young. Televisions are a classroom staple, and computers are everywhere. Science labs have state-of-the art equipment. Functional areas such as the cafeteria, industrial arts classrooms and the planetarium cannot function without electricity.

All of this technology and student population growth puts added stress on the power system. And yet, many schools are trying to meet the educational needs of its students with an outdated electrical infrastructure. Despite (and in some cases, due to) minor updates throughout the years, the power system is not working as efficiently and reliably as it could.
