Explore wind energy affordably and easily.

Discover advanced concepts of wind turbine technology!

Great For Experiments That Require More Power.

All you need to add is a wind source, basic tools, and imagination!

Balsa wood is very lightweight and stiff, and it is perfect for making experimental wind turbine blades.

These dowels are used for designing and testing wind turbine blades and fit into the Wind Turbine Hub.

Educational Materials, Alternative Energy, Application: Physics, KidWind basic turbine building parts

Bulk balsa, chipboard sheets, and dowels for blade making in the classroom.

Affordable and Rugged Wind Turbine.

This balsa wood is pre-shaped in an airfoil shape.

Explore wind energy affordably and easily.

Chipboard is a stiff, easy to cut, lightweight, low cost, and recyclable material used to make simple wind turbine blades.

KidWind blade pitch protractor, incredibly helpful for measuring the blade pitch angle on your KidWind turbine.

The simpleGEN is an easy-to-build AC generator that allows students to explore the basics of electrical generator design.

This kit enables a number of advanced experiments, especially with GENPack generator module. Try different gear ratios, blade designs, generators, and more, in a creative, hands-on inquiry into wind energy science. This nacelle also converts for conducting weightlifting experiments, making it a great option for studying mechanical and electrical energy.

Build a complete turbine by making your own tower and base with PVC pipe (from a hardware store) or use the KidWind Tower and Base Set. You will also need a generator and a way to affix the turbine blades. We recommend using the KidWind Wind Turbine Generator with Wires and a KidWind Hub.
