For over 30 years, the Bridgestone World Solar Challenge has welcomed the greatest minds from around the world to Australia to push the limits of technological innovation and travel the outback in a vehicle powered only by the energy of the sun.
Teams traverse 3,021 kilometres from Darwin to Adelaide in a solar-powered vehicle designed, engineered and built with their own hands.
The blistering sun that powers the car, specifically designed for the Bridgestone World Solar Challenge, can push daytime temperatures in excess of 50 degrees. There are tropical downpours, vicious crosswinds and dust storms. Then there are the road trains - 53 metre monsters barrelling along at 100Kph.
Ask what the Bridgestone World Solar Challenge is all about and you will get many answers. There are so many elements driving technology in electric vehicles today, that the Challenge is no longer about any one advancement in photovoltaic’s, energy management, advanced materials or electrical engineering alone. It is all of these.
Ultimately it is an intellectual Challenge that rewards innovation, team work and human endeavour.
