The event is the culmination of months of racing challenges around the nation. Victoria and Queensland had state finals.

Penrith City Council's Sustainability Unit will be at the finals with its environmental game, eco-pursuit.

Australia's International Solar Boat Challenge is a solar boat race for wire-guided model craft, remote-control models and piloted boats.
