ROBOVERSE PROGRAM

RoboVerse SolarTech™

Explore Energy. Engineer Solutions. Power the Future.

☀️ ROBOVERSE SOLARTECH™

Explore Energy. Engineer Solutions. Power the Future.

Solar Energy & Clean Technology · Ages 11–18 · 12 Weeks

Students investigate how energy works, measure solar performance, design systems, evaluate evidence, and engineer better clean-energy decisions.

THE SUN™ MODEL

Source → Use → Navigate

SSOURCEUnderstand sunlight, energy transformation, electricity, renewable resources, photovoltaic cells, and solar generation.
UUSEExplore how electricity is consumed, measured, conserved, stored, and sometimes wasted.
NNAVIGATEApply solar knowledge to experiments, engineering challenges, system design, data analysis, and real-world problems.

SOLARTECH™ ENGINEERING CYCLE

Measure → Design → Build → Test → Improve

Every major activity follows this evidence-based cycle.
