Take a virtual tour of some of
the world's most advanced power plants.

What You Will See:



  1. Blades -- Blowing wind pushes the blades in a circular manner
  2. Generator -- Converts the rotational movements of the blades into electricity
  3. Base -- Serves as a support which holds the blades and generators high enough off the ground to effectively use the wind

Using your VRML Navagator, you can more around in the virtual world. Use the controls onscreen to change your position, orientation, etc.

Again, if you do not have a VRML plug-in, you can obtain Cosmo Player from Silicon Graphics Inc.
