Boats on solar panels were tested in Moscow
"Valentina" and "Murena", like the other electric boats, are built from scratch. The Moscow Polytechnic University teams have repeatedly beaten the competition in Russian and international regattas with these vehicles. The eco-transport project has been in existence for seven years. But designers around the world continue to think about how to make greater use of renewable energy sources to reduce the pressure on the planet. More in our story.
Thank you to the Manta Rey Moscow Polytechnic team for their help in organising the shoot.
