In the first chapter, an innovative, environmentally friendly method of energy production and
transformation for use in vehicles is introduced.
There is an overview of the kit components and the models that will be built.
The design of the experiment vehicle and the display stand is explained. The components of the
car and display stand are assembled step by step.
The two assemblies are joined together and their functionality is tested.
The placement of the model on the display stand is explained.
Preparations for the experiments are made. Initial tests with battery power, among other things,
show us the function of the transmission and electric motor. After that, there are explanations of
the solar cell and the operation of the vehicle with solar power.
The operational fuel cell car is assembled. The fuel cell is connected to the gas tanks. The system
is filled with distilled water.
We learn the procedure for the production of hydrogen with the fuel cell.
We see how the hydrogen and oxygen gases are stored in the gas tanks. We see how we can
power our car with this environmentally friendly fuel.
After assembling and experimenting with the car, we get a glimpse into the world of environ-
mentally friendly vehicles. We get to know solar cars and solar planes, electric cars, and fuel cell
technology in modern vehicles. This chapter oers both an overview of future alternative energy
possibilities as well as what is already a reality.
This chapter gives some background information explaining why environmentally friendly energy
technology is so important. Examples of renewable energies from the real world are presented.
In this chapter, we learn the science behind solar hydrogen production and the electrolysis of
water.
The theory and functionality of the fuel cell is explained.
The theory and functionality of the solar cell is explained.
To understand the electrical measurements, this chapter takes us on a small excursion into the
topics of electronics and energy.
The digital multimeter is explained and we use it to take electrical measurements with the solar
panel and fuel cell.
