Shams Generation (Shams is Arabic for sun), is QSTec's multi-award winning solar learning and sustainability initiative for primary years students right through to university level. This hands-on learning experience has reached over 10,000 students in 20 schools across Qatar. Students use solar learning kits that are supplied by QSTec to create amazing works of solar art that combine light, movement and recycled materials. Shams Generation hosts several exhibitions per year of the student's amazing solar artworks in addition to holding public workshops where students can design their own solar art pieces. 

Through Shams Generation we are encouraging our future solar energy leaders to develop an understanding of solar applications and sustainability that will stay with them for their entire lives.
