During the 25 minute presentation the aim of the Nuon Solar Team will be briefly discussed. To show the current possibilities with high-end technology and inspire people towards a sustainable future is something we aim for by racing all around the world. But how do you build such a solar car that is able to withstand the fierce completion and cover thousands of miles? Therefore the building process of Nuna will be explained step by step giving insight in why each step was so important in becoming a World Champion in Solar racing. Last but not least we will have a look at the future of electric & solar cars and what we can do to help to speed this process along.
Winnifred Noorlander (1993) has been studying Civil Engineering at the Technical University since 2013.
Since the beginning of this year she has been responsible for the Public Relations of the Nuon Solar Team.
She takes care of organizing events for the team and also helps with manufacturing the solar car whenever possible.
With a passion for high-end technologies and sustainability she will do everything she can to keep the world title solar racing in the Netherlands.
The Nuon Solar Team is the all-time champion in the field of solar car racing. In October 2017 the Nuon Solar Team will participate in the World Solar Challenge in Australia for the ninth time. This is the ultimate sustainable challenge. Solar car 'Nuna' solely uses the energy of the sun during the race of 3000 kilometres through the Outback. The combination of the high-end technology, renewable energy and the excitement of the race reflects the vision of the Nuon Solar Team perfectly. During the race we push the limits of technology to inspire people towards a sustainable future in which energy is used in the most efficient way.
