About hust

Halmstad University Solar Team (HUST) is a student-driven project where innovation, sustainability, and teamwork meet. We design, build, and race a solar-powered car to compete in international competitions such as the Bridgestone World Solar Challenge in Australia. Our mission is to push the boundaries of renewable energy technology, gain real-world engineering and project experience, and proudly represent Halmstad University on the global stage.

We believe in shaping a future where renewable energy drives mobility. By building a solar car, we not only take part in world-class competitions, but also train the next generation of engineers, leaders, and innovators.

Our Mission & Vision

HUST was founded 2017 at Halmstad University by passionate students who wanted to push the limits of technology and sustainability. What started as an idea has grown into an international project where students from different programs come together to make something extraordinary.
