Solar-Powered Ambulance Hits the Road | Amsterdam News

Students from Solar Team Eindhoven in the Netherlands just dropped a solar-powered ambulance called Stella Juva, designed to revolutionize medical access in remote areas. Powered entirely by rooftop solar panels, it can travel over 400 miles on a sunny day and runs all medical equipment off-grid — making it the world’s first solar ambulance. Built to tackle the challenges of isolated communities in Kenya, where health workers often trek miles without reliable power or fuel, this innovation could keep vaccines cold and tools running without a plug. The team, known for their solar car feats across Australia and Morocco, is set to deploy Stella Juva next month with Amref Health Africa — a bold step toward equitable healthcare in the most inaccessible places.
