IIT Madras will host the Global Hyperloop Competition (GHC 2025) in early 2025. This event will bring together student-run Hyperloop teams from around the world, marking a major milestone in the development of the global Hyperloop community. The competition will take place at Asia's first student-run vacuum-compatible Hyperloop track and tube, located in Thaiyur, near Chennai. GHC 2025 aims to unite the world's leading Hyperloop teams to innovate and solve the biggest challenges in the transportation industry.

What is Hyperloop?

Hyperloop, known as the "fifth mode of transport," represents a revolutionary high-speed system for long-distance travel.

High-Speed Travel:
The Hyperloop system features an electromagnetically levitating pod that travels inside a vacuum tube, eliminating friction and air drag. This design allows the pod to potentially reach speeds of up to Mach 1.0.

Safe and Reliable:
Hyperloop offers immunity to weather and ensures a collision-free commute, making it a safe and reliable transportation option. It can move at twice the speed of a plane.

Energy-Efficient:
The system operates with low power consumption and stores energy for 24-hour operations, enabling continuous travel.

Sustainable Transportation:
Hyperloop runs on solar or electrical energy, making it a sustainable choice that reduces environmental impact.

IIT Madras’s Global Hyperloop Competition 2025 will showcase the future of transportation, driving innovation in this cutting-edge technology.
