Apalis

Apalis For several years the University of KwaZulu-Natal (UKZN) has been developing a high tech solar powered vehicle.

Using the latest computer aided design software and other cutting-edge technology, a solar car is to be designed and built, with the ultimate aim of competing in the South African Solar Car Challenge 2012. The Apalis solar car program is a development of the Solar Energy Research Group (SERG). SERG is a research group from the Department of Mechanical Engineering at UKZN which focuses on efficient energy utilization and conversion systems.
