The Agência Nacional de Energia Elétrica (ANEEL) and the Abradee Institute have opened registration for the 5th edition of the National Energy Efficiency Olympiad (ONEE) 2026. The competition aims to promote sustainability, conscious energy consumption, and natural resource preservation among students in Brazil.

For this edition, the target audience has expanded to include students in the 1st and 2nd years of high school, alongside the existing participation of 8th and 9th-grade elementary students from both public and private schools. The program seeks to engage up to 660,000 participants.

The competition structure consists of two main phases: online gamified digital challenges focused on sustainability and safety, followed by an objective theoretical exam. Participants can earn gold, silver, and bronze medals. Top performers in each state may receive prizes such as notebooks and all-expenses-paid trips to Brasília for the Olympic Week.

New details indicate that the initiative is promoted through the Energy Efficiency Program (PEE), with Equatorial Piauí acting as the proposing company. The 2026 edition has also allocated over R$ 250,000 to reward teachers. Educators can be recognized in four categories based on pedagogical work and school engagement, with prizes including vouchers and participation in the BETT Brasil 2027 innovation event. Outreach efforts have already begun, such as a campaign by Equatorial Pará at the Marechal Rondon Basic Education School in Itaituba. Institutions must complete registration through the official portal by September 15.
