Renewable Energy Science Education Lab

Description

Renewable Energy Science Education LabAre you ready to teach green energy technologies and help your students develop their environmental awareness?This classroom package can be used as a key part of your science, engineering, design or technology courses. The included hardware, software, and curriculum material take a blended learning approach to teaching Green Technologies with applied STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) activities throughout.Demand for energy is rising all over the world, while fossil fuel resources are dwindling and the climate is being adversely affected. Meanwhile the specter of climate change is looming. Science and technology can provide innovative solutions that will be needed to tackle these issues. Today's students will need a firm grounding in the scientific and engineering principles that underpin these technologies, if they are to contribute to the future of sustainable energy.Activities include: Identify how the majority of global power generation is produced using fossil fuelsRecognize the need for sustainable energy resourcesInvestigate the science and impact of climate changeUse solar panels to generate electricityUse a wind turbine to generate electricityBuild a model wind farm or solar farm and evaluate their performanceFuel Cells: Use fuel cell technology to extract hydrogen from waterFuel cells: Use a hydrogen fuel cell system to power various devicesPlus many more...IncludesWindPitch turbine bodyRotor head for profiled blades9 profiled blades for turbine (3 sets of 3 types)Rotor head adapter for sheet blades3 polypropylene sheet blades for turbineTurbine Support baseAluminum wind turbine postPEM ElectrolyzerPEM Electrolyzer basePEM Fuel cellPEM Fuel cell baseHydrogen tankOxygen tankInner Gas containersWater/gas tank module baseFlexible 2mm banana connecting
