THE GROWING IMPACT OF SOLQUEST

SolQuest, the Sonnedix solar immersive learning experience, was launched in 2021 in response to Covid-19 restrictions and was inspired by the increasing focus of Sonnedix on digitalisation.

An initiative of our Sustainability Academy, SolQuest transports learners to our vast 170MW Atacama site atop the Western Chilean Highlands where they are immersed in the inner workings of photovoltaic processes and can interact with the virtual environment through problemsolving and exploration.

The SolQuest experience is designed to meet three main learning objectives: showcasing the role of solar energy in the global energy transition; revealing how solar energy itself can be sustainable and improve its local environment and communities; and illustrating how solar panels work to turn the sun’s rays into electricity. The platform also touches on other subjects including site safety, the history of solar and proactive and sustainable community engagement.

We were incredibly excited to see our unique immersive experience reach new learners in 2022 as we opened the exhibit in new locations, including the Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science in Miami.

SolQuest is now exhibiting in five locations across the UK and USA, as well as being available in several languages through our website. These languages include English, Welsh, Spanish, Italian and French, with plans for further languages in the future. SolQuest impacted over 300,000 learners in 2022 alone and we are confident these important developments will allow us to further expand our impact and reach even more learners worldwide.
