This is a wonderful story of William Kamkwamba a young man from Malawi, that built his first windmill when he was only 15.

The windmill now powers lights for 3 rooms and a light over his family’s porch outside.

They also use it to power his family’s two radios and charge mobile phones that the neighbors have.
