Key Attributes

Hands-On Renewable Energy Learning

The Wind Energy Explorations Go Direct® Package brings the science and engineering of wind power into the classroom. Using inquiry-based experiments from the Wind Energy Explorations lab book, students explore how energy is generated, transferred, and optimised. Investigations cover turbine design, blade shape, pitch, and electrical load—turning abstract renewable energy concepts into tangible, measurable results.

All-In-One Experimental Kit for Wind Power Investigations

This complete package includes:

Go Direct® Energy Sensor — measures voltage, current, power, and energy output in real time.

Vernier Resistor Board — lets students test different load conditions to understand power optimization.

KidWind Basic Wind Experiment Kit — enables hands-on turbine construction and design testing.

Every component works together for seamless setup, enabling rapid experimentation with variables such as blade number, length, and angle.

Seamless Integration with Graphical Analysis™ Software

All sensors connect directly to the free Vernier Graphical Analysis™ app, available on Chrome™, iOS, Android™, Windows®, and macOS®. Students can instantly visualize their wind turbine data in interactive graphs, compare trials, and make evidence-based design decisions—all without complex setup.

Scalable for Individual Stations or Whole Classrooms

Available in both Single Pack and Classroom Pack configurations:

Single Pack: 1 Energy Sensor, 1 Resistor Board, and 1 KidWind Kit—perfect for small groups or one-on-one instruction.

Classroom Pack: 3 Energy Sensors, 3 Resistor Boards, and materials for 8 groups—ideal for large, collaborative STEM environments.
