Award ceremony of the Hesse Solar Cup
At the award ceremony, State Secretary Mathias Samson from the Hessian Ministry of Economics described the energy and transportation transition as a generational project full of challenges and opportunities: "On the way to a climate-friendly energy and transportation system, problems await us that will take years to solve. For this, we also need the creativity and enthusiasm of young people. Competitions such as the Solar Cup are excellent means of awakening this commitment. That's why I can't thank the University of Kassel and the participating teachers enough - also for giving the students professional orientation through the competition. After all, half a million men and women will be working in the field of renewable energies and energy efficiency alone in Germany in 2020. Training in the direction of energy supply and climate protection is worthwhile. Anyone who can already build a solar boat as a schoolboy or schoolgirl today need not worry about their professional future."
