A great time to learn from the Applied Sciences Team at St. Lawrence College. There, we explored solar power and the types of control systems we’ll use for our hydrogen generation sustainably solution for @SamsungCanada #SFT_Canada_2024 challenge. @MsNormaMcD @whatsinsideslc

Another day, another prototype for #SFT_Canada_2024. We’ve dramatically increased the surface area of our conductive materials, reduced the gap between washers & replaced all corroded nuts with stainless steel, to generate more hydrogen. We learn by doing! @SamsungCanada #onted
