The Midnight Sun Electrical Team
Solar cars run on solar energy while majority of standard cars run on gasoline - we should all know that. But there is much more to it. Technically speaking, Midnight Sun is a solar electric vehicle - the sun's energy is absorbed by solar cells and converted into a battery that powers the motor(s). This allows the car to drive on a cloudy day or even at night time, all while using no gasoline. The Electrical Team makes sure these systems function correctly at all times. It seems rather straightforward, but requires months of planning and testing. Fortunately, the Electrical Team is always determined to build the best and often brings forth designs that surpass our wildest expectations.
