23 ambitious students
We are the TU Delft Solar Boat Team, a group of 23 driven students from Delft University of Technology.
With our multidisciplinary team, we aim to accelerate the adaptation to sustainable technologies. We
commit ourselves for a full year because we strongly believe in the importance of this goal. Within a
year, we design, build, and test a hydrogen-powered boat. To finish it all off, we will compete in the
World Championships in the Monaco Open Sea Class.

"I've always had the internal motivation to work on sustainability. The Solar Boat Team is my opportunity to have an impact."
Team Manager
"We stand at the start of a new era. The most important engineering problems now all revolve around the energy transition. Let’s speed up this transition and show that anything is possible!"
Project Manager
"It is very nice to work with a student team on a project related to the energy transition. A project with which we are pioneering in the field of hydrogen in the maritime sector."
Hull and Body Engineer
"Being from Curacao, I've been able to see first hand not only what marvels Ocean can offer, but also what can happen to it once polluted by unsustainable Maritime practices. The Hydro Motion project is the future of a clean maritime industry."
Electronics Engineer
"I want to make a difference. In the Solar Boat Team we are joining forces. Systematic change in the maritime industry is needed and together with the team we can have an effect."
