Welcome to The Green Energy Machine Web Site. The Green Energy Machine is
an amazing and unusual tool for classroom teachers to use and we're sure you
've got a load of questions to ask.
We've tried to anticipate them all, but
we realize that's an impossible task. As you go through the web site,
remember the unanswered questions you have because in the "Contact Us"
section we give you the means to ask us anything you want about The Green
Energy Machine.
The Green Energy Machine is a dynamic, easy-to-use classroom tool that makes
the teaching of alternate energy sources vital and exciting. For the cost
of about two or three school laptop computers, the science department or an
entire system's science departments (and, perhaps, other departments-see the
"Additional Uses" page to the left) can provide hands-on experiences with
both solar and wind power.
The Green Energy Machine is sized so conveniently it is easy to move from
classroom to classroom. An entire department or an entire school district
can use one machine.
The Green Energy Machine includes a 35 watt solar cell, a 400 watt wind
turbine, a sealed rechargeable battery, an AC inverter, a voltmeter and
separate amp meters. It produces 5 amps at 110 volts AC when fully charged.
All of these elements are discussed fully in the Specifications section of
the Web Site.
Each teacher seems to use The Green Energy Machine differently, and it was
designed to allow you to use it the way you think best.
To help get you started, the package includes a Teacher-written Resource
Guide that is compatible with National Science Standards. You can follow
this exactly and have an excellent class, or you can use it as a springboard
and adapt it directly to your own needs.
Your students will have another exciting, hands-on science demonstration
when you teach what can sometimes be a dry area in science. Describing a
wind-turbine is not always easy and pictures seldom do them justice. And
let's face it, a picture of a solar panel will put a class to sleep! But
when students see a wind turbine and a solar panel, when they see how they
work, when they can influence what these tools do, the students learn.
The teacher's principal benefit is the addition of another arrow in the
quiver of teaching tools, an arrow that looks to the future as alternate
energy sources become more and more important. You will provide your
students with a leg-up on understanding tomorrow's energy sources.
