67085-4 Maker KIT GEOlino - Renewable Energies

How can electricity be generated without harming nature and the climate? How can heat and electricity be generated from the power of the sun? And how do wind and water wheels and a biogas plant work? You can explore all of this by using the components included to build your own fully functional small power plants and store the energy generated.

Where our electricity will come from in the future Although more than half of Germany's electricity is still generated from gas and coal, the share of renewable energy, which is mainly generated from wind and hydropower and photovoltaics, is rising continuously. And it will have to if Germany is to achieve its climate targets.

With this experiment set, children aged 10 and older learn how energy is generated from nature and what the special technical challenges are in this process - from the generation to the storage of green electricity. With all the necessary technical components, templates and a comprehensive manual to introduce the topic.

GEOlino is the knowledge magazine for young readers in Germany. The range of topics covered by GEOlino knows virtually no bounds, from the cell nucleus to adventurous expeditions to the Arctic and outer space. Whether it's science, technology, politics or sports, the magazine balances knowledge transfer with fun and has stood for unique children's journalism for over 20 years. Franzis Verlag's GEOlino adventure world builds on this diversity of topics and expertise.
