• SwitchedOnToys – Generator (energy conversion) : A generator refers to a mechanical device that converts other forms of energy into electrical energy. It is driven by a water turbine, steam turbine, diesel engine or other power machinery to convert the energy generated by water flow, air flow, fuel combustion or nuclear fission into mechanical energy and transmit it to the generator. It is then converted into electrical energy by a generator.

• SwitchedOnToys – Wind power station : Wind power, a key component of sustainable living and STEM learning, involves converting the kinetic energy of wind into electrical energy. This process is achieved through easy-to-assemble kits like SwitchedOnToys Kits, which feature working models that demonstrate how wind turbines capture and convert wind energy. These educational resources offer a hands-on experience, making learning about renewable energy both engaging and cost-effective.

• SwitchedOnToys – Wind power generation : SwitchedOnToys – Wind power involves converting the kinetic energy of wind into electrical energy. As a form of clean, pollution-free renewable energy, wind power has been utilized for centuries, primarily through windmills for tasks like pumping water and grinding grain. Today, there is significant interest in harnessing wind energy to generate electricity.

• SwitchedOnToys – Electric Wind power: Electric windmills, also known as wind turbines, are a significant clean energy source that contribute to environmental protection, energy conservation, emission reduction, and energy security. By harnessing wind energy to generate electricity, windmills offer a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels, helping to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and mitigate climate change.
