Solar Butterfly: a butterfly travels around the world emission-free

The mission of the Solar Butterfly

By 2025 Louis Palmer and his team want to have visited more than 1,000 sustainability-oriented projects on six continents with the Solar Butterfly and they plan to organise events with the local population, schools, politicians and the press there. The objective of the trip? To change the world in a positive way and to drive forward solutions to combat climate change!

HELLA is also on the road with the Solar Butterfly

But what exactly is the connection between the Solar Butterfly and HELLA? That answer is very simple! In order to contribute to climate protection, it was mainly LED light sources that were first used for energy-saving purposes. Since then, these have accompanied the Solar Butterfly on its journey around the globe. The interior of the trailer is lit up by HELLA headlamps and indeed it is our headlamps that are also used for the entire exterior lighting of the vehicles. In this way we want to not only ensure the safety of the team and of the vehicle, but also wish to show that we focus on environmentally friendly technologies. We are pleased to be part of this important project and to make our contribution to environmental protection. Because one thing is really clear: every single one of us can contribute something to environmental protection, and indeed every contribution counts!
