Shell Eco-marathon

The Shell Eco-marathon is the bridge between the academe and actual experience, the bridge where concept meets reality. Being hungry for knowledge and experience, the Shell Eco Marathon gives the students the opportunity to grow beyond the academe.

We initiate and take the lead in demonstrating how energy efficiency is critical to achieving a greener and more sustainable future. We will support future generations by providing them with a comfortable environment in order to make them feel that our team is their home, where they can find a family and nourish themselves.

Diversity in energy sources may play a big role in promoting efficiency through distributing the consumption of different kinds of fuels and energy sources. However, it all boils down to how these energy resources are sourced, processed, and distributed to power transportation.

Shell Eco-marathon is a great place to learn in the field of sustainable energy and automotive engineering. It is an environment where you can apply the knowledge you have learned at school to actual situations. Being a member of the Shell Eco Marathon, in my opinion, has made me a stronger engineer and team player.

My participation in the SEM competition helped me realize how important it is to be a good community partner and to prioritize people's safety. Ironic as it may seem, an energy corporation supporting a competition that encourages innovation to reduce energy use in automobiles, through the SEM I learnt about Shell's objective of supplying more and cleaner energy solutions, and this made me understand the value of the work that I perform.

The SEM event is a great platform for us to inspire the younger generation to explore and discover innovative ideas and solutions to our world’s current problems. New ideas today might power our future tomorrow. The (SEM) atmosphere is full of engineering wonder, and I was quite astonished by how young students from different cultures were able to do great feats of engineering work.

The Shell Eco-Marathon was more than just a marathon; it was one of Shell's missions. It had significance for the young people who will live in the world in the future. We were given the once-in-a-lifetime chance to put our knowledge and ideas into action and demonstrate to the world that reducing emissions is achievable since the youth and engineering students are the future's dreams and the beacon of innovation that will shine in the future.

We got to know some incredible people from many racial, cultural, and societal backgrounds, as well as many aspiring engineers and other students that share our desire for the kind of invention and invention that the SEM atmosphere fosters.

The SEM experience made me aware that there are many areas of work than only the engineering and technical side, that I need to master. Collaboration and determination were fundamental to our ability to get the vehicle running before it was sent to Sepang, Malaysia.

I've been motivated to constantly search for ways to improve the systems I'm working on by seeing the students' passion for innovation. The desire for advancement should never go away, whether it's implementing energy optimization strategies as a process engineer or creating continuous improvement programs.
