In this project,
students learn about the energy generation and usage. Emphasis is placed on
potential sources of renewable energy, and on how power demands vary from
country to country. The students learn how energy is measured, and experiment
with generating and storing energy themselves, using an AC or DC generator
connected to a bicycle and lead-acid batteries. They can measure how long
common household appliances can be run on the stored energy, and in the process
gain a better understanding of their own personal energy usage. Design of
different energy efficient converters can be undertaken in this project.
