Engineering-Robot-Wedo2

Rosa Aldomà
We have created our recycled robots! They are amazing and students have worked so hard to make it happen.
First of all, they brought to school all materials that they needed to create their own robot. Then, they started to painted and finally they cut and paste all the pieces to create it.

Hydroelectric wind turbine
&
batteries
One of the biggest challenges facing wind parks is to stop power generation when there is no wind. This problem is solved by the combination of wind turbines with hydroelectric power technology. The new wind - hydroelectric power unit is innovative and is designed to produce energy even when no wind is blowing.
The base of the wind turbine will serve as a tank and there is an additional larger tank. The wind - hydroelectric installation should be located on a hill. When it blows, the wind turbine generates electricity and at the same time stores the excess energy in a battery, thus solving the problem of where the energy produced by renewable sources goes when we don't need it.
When it is not blowing, the dam is opened so that the water in the tank under the wind turbine flows from the hill to a pipeline to generate hydroelectric power through the hydro-turbine. And in this case the excess energy from the turbine is stored in a battery. The water from the second tank will be pumped back to the hill via a water pump. That is, the same water will follow the opposite path. This allows uninterrupted energy production.
