The goal of the PlanetSolar team? Be the first to circumnavigate the globe in a “solar” boat – one powered by a silent, pollution-free electrical engine, driven exclusively by solar energy. Their average speed is between 6-8 knots and course the chosen platform is a catamaran! With this project the PlanetSolar team intends to show that current technologies aimed at improving energy efficiency are reliable and effective, and secondly to advance scientific research in the field of renewable energy. They have already successfully crossed the Atlantic and are now heading into the Pacific.
