Image for Powerpod

This is a collaberation with the Edinburgh Woodcraft Folk who have built a renewable energy "Powerpod" trailer which is entirely self powered using solar and wind energy. It can charge mobile, ipods and even has a fridge for ice cream! The workshop involves two experiments showing how chemistry can help produce renewable energy. You also get a chance to get a look round the powerpod (and maybe get an ice cream if you're lucky!).
