When a power failure happens, the stored power can be sent to different neighborhoods.The students brought their model to life with 3D printing technology. They printed the parts they needed. To make the model more real, they made a base out of wood and grass. The model has lights and even a small train that travels back and forth.The team did not win the competition, but the experience was valuable.
