The Power Transmission Team will determine the physical layout and transmission methods for the power lines based on the power requirements of the system. They will also design the power transfer system and identify manufacturers for cost analysis of existing systems.

  • Determine the physical layout of the power lines and the methods/levels at which the power will be transmitted over those lines.
  • Determine the amount of power needed for the system
  • Create a fail-safe backup plan for the vehicles
  • Cope with the losses incurred during power transmission
