Project Experience

Solaris Solar Car Projects (2004 -): Project Coordinator (2004 –  ), advisor (2008 – 2009), pilot (2004-2007),  Six solar vehicles and five EVs are designed and produced by the project team. During Solaris (1 -10) Projects, (2004 – 2019, over five hundred students, researchers, academicians and entrepreneurs took part. Solaris 11 Project Team (2019 – 2021) is focused on production of the seventh solar car for BWSC ’23 (http://www.teamsolaris.com). Supported by sponsors from industry, DEU and The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK).
