Ideas on curriculum for an alternative energy course?
I am a high school student and will be taking an independent study course next year. Essentially, I am responsible for designing and carrying out the curriculum throughout the year, with a faculty adviser checking in with me occasionally. I have decided that the subject of my independent study course will be something along the lines of alternative energy or alternative fuels.
Does anybody know of any text books or helpful resources that I could use during my independent study course? I plan to do research, perform labs and experiments, and visit local labs, refineries, and perhaps a power plant. However, a textbook on alternative energy that I could follow would be very helpful. Even better would be a book with labs or experiments in it that I could perform.
If you have any ideas on how I can put together this course and make it the best it can be, let me know! Thanks.

But primarily I want to give you a word of warning: beware of quack research! There’s more bad than good, and you have to be careful with something with a name as catchy as "alternative energy." You don’t want to wind up spending all that time on a bunch of junk.
