This system provides you with all the answers you need concerning the basics of using wind energy. With the help of curriculum-based trials, it discusses different topics which are necessary for understanding the functions of wind power plants. The study of how wind speed, wind direction or rotor type influences the power output are only some examples of possible experiments. Both qualitative experiments for students from age of 11 to 13, and complete quantitative trials for physics lessons until the age of 19 are described in detail. For the qualitative trials, the expansion "Measurements without Measuring Tools" is required.

The entire process of producing biofuel is demonstrated with leXsolar-Biofuel Ready-to-go in the form of student experiments. The suitcase contains all necessary parts and components and can be used from any location. The first step is resource selection and fermentation. The resulting mash is then distilled with the custom-built leXsolar-condensor and the resulting ethanol will be characterized. Lastly, the produced bio fuel needs to be converted into usable energy - for example into electricity with the provided ethanol fuel cell. leXsolar-BioFuel Ready-to-go does not only cover bio ethanol production but also the generation of biodiesel through transesterification of fats.
