The museum features new environments with mapped projection and all in touch technology, which allows the public to understand more about the universe of electricity. Another novelty at the museum is the Maker space, focused on student learning, in addition to the Energy Classes project, created with the aim of raising awareness among students and teachers of the importance of saving energy, through knowledge about the history of electricity, optics and magnetism.
