Great info, need to visit
As a realtor in the area, I always get question on the safety of the power plant. After visiting Duke World of Energy, I love the safety measures that are in place. Great education for young to old.

Closed for renovations
Family
We were very disappointed to drive from Clemson to the World of Energy on to find they are closed for renovations. There was nothing on their voicemail and nothing on their website. Very bummed!

A World of Information
Family
Son is doing a school project on the debate of Nuclear Power and this was a very good source of information for that project. Exhibits were inviting and informative. Good presentation and friendly staff. Also have a very nice butterfly garden on the outside overlook area.

Worth the time to understand nuclear energy
Family
Overall it displays the need for nuclear energy and the safety that ensures the facility remains secure. It is educational for both young ones as well as adults.

Just ok, kids would love it
Friends
It didn't have the wow factor for adults, but I think kids would enjoy it. The displays were interesting, more activity would be better.

Well done museum
Family
We stopped to give our kids a break from riding. We were pleasantly surprised at what a good museum this is. It held our 4 year olds attention and we learned a lot as well. You can really take it at your own pace, so if you have 30 minutes or an hour and a half, you will enjoy it. There is also a lovely butterfly garden and picnic area if you are fortunate to visit on a day without rain.
As a homeschooling mom, I appreciated that they had a free unit study on energy.

Informative
Family
A self guided, interesting, informative tour about energy. As you walk through the permanent exhibits, you activate videos and demonstrations that teach about how energy is made, transmitted, used, etc. We’ve done this more than once and learn something each time. The displays entertain the children while educating them. It is all indoors so would be a good activity when the weather is not so comfortable outside.
