Powering Team:

 The powering team researches, designs, and builds the battery for the car. Students on the powering team use their knowledge and skills in chemistry and engineering to create an efficient battery that supplies sufficient power to the motor on the car which allows the car to move.

Research:

In the beginning of every year, the powering team researches new ideas for the battery of the car. They look for batteries that would be easy to make and have a high energy density. 

 

Design and Build:

Once the team has their idea for the battery, they design the battery trying to keep it as small and light-weight as possible. After the design is complete, the model is 3D printed and/or built from other materials.
