About this project
André Jacquinet took part in Sun Trip Maroc 2026 and Corsica Sun Trip, the long-distance adventure on solar-powered bikes held since 2013.
The machine is a solar bike.
André Jacquinet has travelled by bike for years and loves cycling holidays for the closeness to nature. The race aspect does not interest him – he would rather take two extra hours to visit interesting places. He co-founded Enersol, a renewable-energy company focused on solar, and is convinced the energy transition is urgent.
