Standard 5 - 7

Workshop length:

Half day to full day

Renewable Energy Workshop is one of our STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) outreach initiatives designed to ignite young girls' curiosity and interest in renewable energy especially Wind and Solar power. Through these workshops, girls get a chance to dive into the world of renewable energy. They assemble, install and test Wind turbines and Solar panels. This hands-on experience lets them explore the scientific principles behind these technologies, while they learn the process of assembling and installing the structures.

The Wind turbine kit, equipped with an electric generator, controller, battery, and power inverter, provides a hands-on learning experience. Through assembling and operating this miniaturized system, girls gain a firsthand understanding of how wind turbine blades capture wind energy and convert it into usable electricity. They witness this transformation firsthand by powering an LED light and charging a mobile phone, demonstrating the real-world application of Wind energy in powering everyday devices.

Similar to the Wind turbine kit, the Solar panel kit provides a hands-on learning experience. Equipped with a Solar panel, charge controller, battery, and power inverter, girls assemble, install, and test the system. This process fosters a firsthand understanding of how Solar panels capture sunlight and convert it into usable electricity. Following successful installation, they witness this transformation by powering an LED light and charging a mobile phone, demonstrating the real-world application of Solar energy in powering everyday devices.

The Renewable Energy Workshop offers an exciting and engaging way for girls to learn about renewable energy, its applications, environmental benefits and the possibilities it holds for the future. Our ultimate goal is to ignite young girls' curiosity and interest in STEM fields, particularly those related to renewable energy. We highlight potential career paths in renewable energy and STEM fields, encouraging participants to consider further education and careers in these areas. We believe that workshops like these play a crucial role in achieving that objective.
