World attention has been focused on the use of the world’s consumable resources by the Kyoto Agreement and by the mounting evidence of climate change. Students tend to be very aware of environmental issues and have a high motivation to study renewable energy. The engineering disciplines that are spread across renewable energy are applicable as part of a broader mechanical or aeronautical course.
Cussons Technology’s range of renewable energy laboratory experiments and demonstrations are designed to teach students the principles of each discipline of renewable energy. Each manual lays out the engineering theory behind the experiment in a way that allows the experiment to be part of a dedicated renewable energy module, or an interesting part of other modules.
Cussons educational renewable energy range offer equipments to aid studying the following area ( see blue links below):
