Consider a Future Without Fossil Fuels
Power House provides a basic introduction to alternative energy while also teaching basic concepts and principles of physical science.With the Power House you can build a model house with solar panels, wind power, greenhouses, and a desalination system. You can also build and operate an electric train, windmill, solar cooker, solar hot water tank and more!!!Physicist Uwe Wandrey developed this series of experiments. Professor Wandrey creatively integrates physical science and technology lessons with the adventure of building a home and living on a remote island. To survive, you must learn how to harness the power of the sun and the wind as well as tap the energy of other physical forces. The storyline follows the experiments in a stepwise fashion. Easy-to-follow activities make it fun to build models and use them for your experiments.We hope all those experimenting with this kit may be inspired to create something similar on a grander scale.
