Discount Packages for Hybrid, Solar & Wind Turbine Experiments Kits
For Students, Teachers & Groups
Multiple items in each kit.
Renewable Energy Education
In the Classroom

Each Discount Package includes 10 or more Kits for Classroom or Group Use.

First Awareness, Then Action

Are our children really aware of their stake in making a difference in our environment? Do they know how to move from awareness to action so that they can contribute to the future of our planet? Renewable energy education in the classroom bridges this gap.

The pre-packaged discount kits are our most popular.

Renewable energy education in the classroom is the perfect place to begin bringing forth awareness as to how we can make a difference in preserving our planet's natural resources. Chemistry, physics, earth science and social studies classes are perfect venues.

Be patient, this is a huge document and even though the download says it is done and there is a white, blank page, it is still downloading.

If you need help filling out the form, go to Grants.gov, click on the contact tab at the top of the page and call them. The people are very helpful.

Let's look at some activities and experiments for the classroom using the PicoTurbine Windmill...

Read... See... Do...
Did you know that is the process that medical interns at Cook County Hospital in Chicago, IL go through before they do surgery. Scary! But it tells you that this is the best way for people to learn.

With the Picoturbine Educational Windmill Kit you can do the following:

  • With a simple picture wire you can show how wind power can produce heat. We think of wind as cold. But when the mechanical energy of wind is turned into electricity it easily produces heat.
  • Divide your class into groups. (After all, scientists work in groups.) Each group can change one variable of an experiment. Then each group can present their project to the class and see which variable is more productive. Examples: 1) Change size or shape of blades. 2)Change the material used for the blades.
  • Which one produces more heat?

  • Which one produces the most electricity?

  • Which one starts up faster with less effort? You can use a hair blow dryer to produce the "wind."

For High School Thru College

  • The booklet that comes with the PicoTurbine Educational Kit includes information and formulas on how power can be extracted from various wind speeds.

  • There is also information and formulas for producing electricity using alternators.

  • Which produces more energy... a wind turbine or a hybrid (wind/solar)?

Renewable energy education in the classroom is a must for our planet's future.

 "The PicoTurbine can produce 1/3 watt -- that's a lot of power when converted to education!"

Designer, J. Stephen Pendergrast.


Duke University year after year visits India to host a project where kids are instructed on Renewable Energy education. Each year they use PicoTurbine Windmill Kits and do many different tests to see how Wind Power works.
