Resumen:
The conception and assembly of an experimental Hybrid Electric Vehicle based on the combination of human energy contribution and photovoltaic solar energy is presented in this manuscript. The vehicle has a battery for storing the energy provided by both systems. The application?s aim is to achieve the lowest possible energy consumption for the vehi-cle?s movement, with photovoltaic modules as the main electricity source. The development of the solar vehicle was moti-vated by a Latin-American solar vehicles race about 1000km across the Atacama Desert in Chile, South America. The main constructive aspects, energy issues and experimental results are presented.
