A complete design, print and build challenge
Give renewable-energy lessons a practical outcome. Students design and print an enclosure, assemble the solar charging components, and investigate how light energy becomes useful electrical energy.
The project connects the supplied solar components with enclosure design, renewable-energy concepts and practical assembly.
Why it works in the classroom
The project gives students a clear brief and a physical result they can test. The supplied base model provides a practical starting point while leaving room for original ideas, measurement, iteration and discussion.
Learning opportunities
- 3D design, measurement and enclosure prototyping
- Solar panels, photons and renewable energy
- Rechargeable batteries and charging applications
- Electronic components including diodes
