SINGAPORE - A team of Temasek Polytechnic students are gearing up for a car race that will ultimately go to the fast, furious and fuel-efficient.

The first race is a two-hour-long qualifying round. From there, 15 teams will advance to the finals, which entails a gruelling six-hour race. Hydrogen fuel cells produce electricity by combining hydrogen and oxygen, with water and small amounts of heat released in the process. As it does not produce any planet-warming carbon dioxide when burned, hydrogen is considered a cleaner fuel that is set to play a major role in Singapore’s and many other countries’ move towards net-zero emissions.

Mr Lee Khim Yong, a senior lecturer with the poly’s Digital Fabrication and Additive Manufacturing Centre who is also coaching the students, said that taking part in the race also helps to train their mental strength and tenacity. The teachers had conducted sparring sessions between the students to observe how they react under stress and in different scenarios. ST PHOTO: EUGENE TAN
