As we are design competitions in a fast moving technological space, the regulations of each event set out to describe what needs to be achieved in an environment designed to encourage innovation and lateral thinking. The public is often invited to view technical inspections. Only Team and ISF members are allowed in the inspection area. Width 1.8 meters.

To quote Hans Tholstrup,one of the founders and current president of ISF:. We are reaching the end of cycles – the end of Oil, the greenhouse effect, printing of money, the end of ocean fish, and the end of the easy growing of food. One could use the phrase ‘the perfect storm’, so we need a challenge to the philosophers of the world, to try to save as many of these cycles as possible. The Quiet Achiever, the little engine that did. Hans Tholstrup, President of ISF. Abu Dhabi Solar Challenge.
