The team wanted to make a contribution to solving the energy problem for transport while being considerate to the environment and providing general engineering interest to the participating students. The hope is that in adult life these students will have good opportunities as a result of their experience and that the interaction between humans and nature will be better understood and integrated as an obligation to the future of the planet
