H2GP: HORIZON HYDROGEN GRAND PRIX PRO
The Hydrogen Grand Prix (H2GP) program challenges tomorrow’s innovators to design, engineer, build and race their own hydrogen-powered cars. Throughout the program, these future leaders develop the creativity, ingenuity and real-world problem-solving skills needed to tackle tomorrow’s energy challenges.
The semester-long H2GP program empowers students to be the problem-solvers of tomorrow, connect with the Earth’s automotive industry, and gear it up with renewable energy technology. At KIOSC, the program is launched in February with our Discovery: Green Energy Revolution program. This is designed to spark a team of 6 from each school to plan, design and prepare for the 4 hour race in July each year.
Design. Build. Race!
Students must apply a wide range of foundational knowledge acquired in the first part of the program throughout the competition. Their task is to design, engineer and build their own fuel cell-powered RC car and test it during a 4-hour race. From the earliest conceptual stages to maintaining and repairing their car during the race, students are in control of every step of the process, enabling truly immersive experience that captures the rigor and excitement of real-world science and engineering endeavors.
