Academic Year Accomplishment
This last academic year RESU held our third RESU Reunion on March 31st where we had dinner and networking with RESU/ ERE almuni. RESU was also an active and supporting club for the Department of Energy's Race to Zero Competition. ERE graduate student and RESU member, Jacob Rada, led a PV panel IV-Curve testing workshop related to his thesis work. The club also continued its maintenance and operation of the 10 year standing Solar Radiation Monitoring Station (SoRMS) - a joint solar raditaon data acquisition station between Cal Poly Humboldt and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL).

This year, RESU participated in the Northern California Solar Regatta, hosted by SMUD. The club obtained a used aluminum row boat and retrofitted it to be powered by two solar panels. They competed in Sacramento on May 14 in the official race.
Additionally, RESU members successfully competed in the Department of Energy’s Race to Zero competition this year.
