With the scarcity of fossil fuels and it's inherent dangers to the environment, renewable energy like wind, solar etc provide feasible ways to meet the world's power demand. Cornell University Solar Boat (CUSB) is a way for engineers to get exposed to the advantages of solar energy and attain skills that will be important in this energy starved world. We hope to learn more about solar energy, not
only from an environmental view, but also look at it's collaboration with many other fields of engineering, like mechanical electrical etc. Through the process of building a boat, we hope to look at how solar energy can be used to power a moving physical structure and gain some insight into the future of this renewable source of energy
