Greenpower Australia
Greenpower Australia inspires young people across the country by challenging them to work together in teams to design, build, and race single-seater electric vehicles. Originating from the UK, where Greenpower Education Trust celebrates over 25 years of success, the program has expanded globally, with over 700 teams and 10,000 students participating annually. Greenpower Australia is now proudly part of this growing international network, welcoming schools and community groups from across the nation to join our exciting STEM initiative.
Our Focus
Greenpower Australia spans three categories to support young learners at various stages of their STEM education:
- Goblin (for students in years 3-6) offers an engaging introduction to electric vehicle design and racing, fostering foundational skills in engineering, problem-solving, and teamwork.
- F24 (for students in years 5-10) challenges participants to build more advanced electric vehicles, promoting deeper learning in engineering, design, and programming, all while competing in regional and national events.
- F24+ (for students from years 11 to age 25) provides an advanced category for older students, preparing them for careers in motorsport, engineering, and related industries through complex challenges and hands-on experience.
Currently, our events are based in North-West Tasmania, but we welcome teams from schools and community groups across Australia to participate in the Greenpower Australia program.
Official Launch in 2025
Greenpower Australia is officially launching in 2025 with a launch event in early 2025 and a major final event in late 2025. This marks the beginning of our full competition season, and registration is now open for schools and community groups across the nation.
We’re excited to offer an inclusive, hands-on STEM experience that combines engineering, design, teamwork, and innovation, while giving students the chance to race electric vehicles and showcase their achievements.

Annual Registration Fee (all categories): $2,000

Our Impact
Greenpower Australia has already made a significant impact in Tasmania, with Montello Primary School becoming the first school in Australia to participate, thanks to the generous support of Schools Plus. Their grade 5/6 students have successfully built and managed two F24 electric vehicles, marking a significant milestone in Tasmanian STEM education.
Greenpower Australia’s Growth
In 2025, Greenpower Australia will continue to grow and expand, offering even more opportunities for teams across Australia to get involved in hands-on STEM learning. Our early 2025 launch event and major final event in late 2025 will be exciting milestones for the Greenpower community.
With support from Burnie City Council and Marinus Link, we’re also able to offer additional resources for schools in the Burnie region.
