The RACV Energy Breakthrough is a joint initiative of the Country Education Project, the Shire of Central Goldfields and the Royal Automobile Club of Victoria (RACV).
The main event involves a 24-hour trial in which students of schools around Australia race their Human Powered Vehicles and Hybrid Powered People Carriers around a street circuit of 1.84 kilometres (extended from 1.575 km prior to 2016). The teams which race these vehicles consist of 8 riders, usually four male and four female participants. Leading teams can complete almost 900 kilometres in the 24-hour trial.
