Abstract
This paper aims at presenting the experience of the renewable energy group at the United Arab Emirates University (UAEU) in the organization of the 'Engineering Students Renewable Energy Competition (ESREC)' for undergraduate engineering and technical college students in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The benefits of such competition to students are that it allows them to use and apply the technical knowledge gained during their engineering formation in the design of a renewable energy (RE) system. The paper presents the evolution of the ESREC competition over four cycles, its judging process and the results.
