Join New England Science & Sailing Foundation as you design a turbine powered by wind. Rhode Island is home to the first offshore wind farm, and now it is your turn to be the engineer! Just as sailors use wind to power their sailboats, you can use the wind to generate electricity and promote renewable energy. Build and test your own wind turbine while exploring how to maximize efficiency and reduce your carbon footprint.
