There has been a major shift in thinking all around the world on what types of energy we should use. Unfortunately, the world currently runs on fossil fuels such as oil and coal. These fuels give off carbon along with other [...]
How Electricity is Made
Electricity is produced when the balance between the protons and electrons of an atom is disrupted by a certain force. It transmits an electrical charge through solid matter.
Electrical energy is produced by converting other forms of energy. Examples would be [...]
How to Build a Wind Turbine
A wind turbine is nothing but a simple turbine set up in open space, which utilizes the mechanical energy of air, or wind and converts it to kinetic energy. Either it can make things work by implementation of the kinetic energy to the [...]
How to Build a Windmill
A Windmill is a rather simple machine powered by wind energy. The windmill uses wind to turn rotating blades. These rotating blades effectively turn wind energy into usable energy such as electricity and, in earlier times, energy to pump water and [...]
