Public demo day

A public demo day is normally organised over an afternoon with  2 parallel sessions and 7 times lots of 45 min. In this setup, a total of 14 family groups can participate (min age: 3). In the 45 min, participating groups normally get the following experience:

• Short intro to offshore wind (5 min)

• Build the turbine (10 min)

• Install one fixed structure (10 min)

• Install one floating structure (10 min)

• Decommissioning (5 min)

​

Volunteers help out during the day with setting up, teaching kids, and packing up at the end.

Outdoor school workshop

The sessions at the beach normally take 2h, during which we do the following:

• Introduction to offshore wind (10-20 min)

• Build turbine in groups of 4 (10-20 min)

• Test fixed support structures (25-35 min)

• Test floating support structures (25-35 min)

• Decommissioning (10-15 min)

​

We can organise up to 3 of the beach sessions in one day. Per session we teach max. 25 kids (age: 8 - 15). Instead of at the beach, the sessions can also be run at a lake, pond, swimming pool, or with a water tank/sand pit.

Indoor Wind4Kids workshop

Wind4Kids is a global educational program for schools initiated by OffshoreWind4Kids. The program educates kids about the fundamentals of wind energy. We offer school workshops, teacher trainings and gear. All kids learn using the new Wind4Kids turbine with built-in measurement equipment! 💨⚡️

Fair setup

We offer a range of interactive fair setups to make learning about renewable energy fun and memorable:
 

• Offshore Setup: Kids can build their own wind turbine and install it in a water pool and/or a sand pit on one of our structures.

• Wind4Kids Setup: Children build wind turbines and test them in front of a large ventilator. Optional: we can add a competitive twist to see which turbine produces the most energy.

• VR Setup: In partnership with Vinci VR, we bring a cutting-edge virtual reality experience, allowing participants to explore the fascinating world of offshore wind using VR headsets.

Offshore Wind Workshops

We run Offshore Wind Workshops for students or professionals as part of a course or as part of a teambuilding activity! The activities can run as a micro-course across an afternoon up to a full course which extends for multiple days 👷‍♀️🌊

NEW: access our web app to calculate stability of the structures

Floating Wind Challenge

The global Floating Wind Challenge is a challenge initiated by OffshoreWind4Kids. The challenge stimulates young engineers to design and build the best floating wind support structure. During the 2024 edition young engineers will build the best floating wind support structure for a Vevor 400W turbine!  🌊💨
