Energy Challenge Event

09 June 2022 09:00 | Add to my calendar

On 9 June, the TU Delft campus will be all about students and their ideas for the future of the energy transition. This year, almost all students will pay extra attention in their education to the transition to a society where the energy supply is more sustainable. A large number of ideas and prototypes will be on display on 9 June during the Energy Challenge Event, which is part of TU Delft's anniversary celebrations.  

There is plenty to do for students on the event terrain. Find out what other faculties are doing to speed up the energy transition, participate in challenges, network with alumni, attend lunch lectures, cycle your own smoothie and learn more about what you can do to contribute to this yearโ€™s lustrum mission. Bring your friends, fellow students or housemates and enjoy a 'real' event on campus again!

Stay up to date via this website, which we will update regularly, or follow @tudelftcampuslife on Instagram. Below are some examples of what will take place on 9 June.

Energy from waves

On this day, nearly 100 teams of 6 first-year mechanical engineering students will test a model of the Wave Energy Accumulator (WEA) they designed and built themselves over the past six months. The WEA must convert energy from the movement of waves into the rotational energy of a flywheel and be able to store the energy. On 9 June 2022, the students will compete with each other for the best design. Read more

Build sustainably

Bachelor students from the faculty of Architecture & the Built Environment are building a pavilion for the 9th of June. The pavilion shows how the different Master tracks of this faculty pay attention to the lustrum theme. In the weeks preceding the event, the master students made proposals for their part of the pavilion. The best proposals will be used and built. Read more

And many others...

The Energy Club, Greenteams, Energy for Refugees and study associations, among others, will also be showing their solutions for the energy transition. Also, the Dreamteams will also be present with their prototypes. Students from the TU Delft, InHolland and The Hague University of Applied Sciences will be demonstrating their developed ideas together for a problem posed by the municipality of Delft as part of the Energy Challenge and City Deal/WijStad collaboration.

Join us

We are asking every faculty to enter their most appealing student projects and assignments to the Energy Challenge Event. Besides all kinds of demonstrations of what has been achieved during the Energy Challenge, prizes will be awarded based on the inventiveness and initiative shown within the energy transition.
