The RACV Energy Breakthrough is an exciting program designed to provide
opportunities for students, teachers, parents and local industry to work
together to design and construct a vehicle, a machine or innovation in
technology that will represent an 'energy breakthrough'.
It began in 1992 when the Country Education Project began seeking new ways to engage young people in regional Victoria with a wider range of challenges.
The program encourages participants to examine and use the latest technology while considering its impact on the environment and the way people live locally and globally. The RACV Energy Breakthrough isn’t just a once-a-year event!
School groups work throughout the year to design, build and test
vehicles or machines within detailed specifications. It requires a team
effort and an across-the-curriculum approach. These groups then bring
their vehicles and machines to Maryborough in November, for a huge
celebration in which they can demonstrate and trial them in action.
The Racv Energy Breakthrough is a joint initiative of the Country Education Project, the Central Goldfields Shire Council and the Royal Automobile Club of Victoria (RACV).
