WeatherSTEM Fusion: Solar Power

  • Some schools already use solar power to meet their energy needs.
  • Even the WeatherSTEM Unit you are working with during this lesson is solar powered.
  • There are two solar panels of the WeatherSTEM Unit.
    1. The solar panel on the white box provides energy to send the information from the WeatherSTEM unit inside to your classroom.
    2. The solar panel below powers the fan that pulls in air for temperature readings.
