Wired for Wind: An Overview of the 2011 National 4-H Science Experiment

Wind power is a clean, widely available, low cost, and renewable energy source. As the search for alternative energy sources continues to gain momentum, the development of wind power technologies is advancing. In this interactive demonstration, we will explore the world of wind power using a model windmill to generate electricity to power small models like sail cars and tricycles. Then we will learn how to build and design your own wind turbine prototype using the “Wired for Wind” 2011 4-H National Science Experiment curriculum materials.
