On March 4th, GREENBMG Inc. visited Centennial Public School in Waterloo for a solar energy demonstration. Grade seven students learned about future sustainability solutions and the fundamentals of renewable energy.

We covered different scientific terms such as solar energy, thermal and PV, the sun's elevation and azimuth angles, electricity, and heat. We had the opportunity to talk about moment, too. Moment is the force multiplied by distance. The CEO, Behnam, used this term to explain the role of the 2.5 pounds counterweight on the back of the dish.

The students asked many questions, and due to the hands-on nature of the demonstration, we were able to dive into more complex ideas such as the key differences between the two types of solar energy: solar photovoltaic and solar thermal using the Dual-Axis Solar Tracker.

We received very positive feedback from science teachers and look forward to working more with Centennial Public School.
