On the 31st of January, REDARC Electronics signed on as the major sponsor of the TAFE SA Solar Team who are taking their SAV (solar-articulated vehicle) to the next three World Solar Challenges.
The TAFE SA team celebrated the official launch of the biannual Bridgestone World Solar Challenge 2019 at Adelaide’s Victoria Square this week. Now the countdown is on to the epic 3000km journey from Darwin to Adelaide, 13th to the 20th October.
TAFE SA Electrical Lecturer, Mark Ready said, “We had a new intake of young team members, including apprentices and two students from St Patricks Technical College at Elizabeth”.
Speaking of the team’s next steps Mark said, “We have had good progress this year, our new battery is almost built, and our new dash system is in design phase. We expect to be on road trials next month”.
The Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment, David Ridgway attended the event saying, “Broadcast across the globe, the event provides a unique platform to market South Australia, its iconic desert scenery and as a hotbed for innovation.”
This year TAFE SA joins 53 teams (8 Australian based) from 24 countries. You can follow the TAFE SA team or keep up with the journey via World Solar Challenge.

With Christmas right around the corner we would like to thank all our customers for your continuous support and commitment throughout the year. On behalf of everyone at REDARC, we would like to wish you a safe and relaxing Christmas!
As 2025 comes to an end, we look back on a year of strong growth and meaningful progress for REDARC. We delivered the products our customers have been waiting for, advanced our manufacturing capability and reinforced our position as a global leader in mobile power and towing solutions.
Are you travelling this holiday season? While the technical support team at REDARC will be taking a short break this Christmas, you can rest assured knowing that our REDNetwork specialists across Australia and New Zealand are here to help.
Earlier this year, REDARC supported the Project by powering their first dedicated Mobile OpShop vehicle, enabling the team to operate independently in remote locations. This Christmas, REDARC is extending that support further, with a $10,000 dollar donation and have committed to supporting a second truck, expanding the project’s reach across Australia.
