GE Ecomagination Challenge: Powering Your Home

Deadline: 2011-03-01

Welcome to Phase II of the GE ecomagination Challenge, a $200 million innovation experiment where businesses, entrepreneurs, innovators and students share their best ideas on how to improve our energy future – and just might get funded. Phase II of the ecomagination Challenge focuses on Powering Your Home. We are looking for innovative ideas about capturing, managing, and using energy in the home.

We’ve teamed up with some of the best-known venture capital firms, including Emerald Technology Ventures, Foundation Capital, KPCB and RockPort Capital, to help back the most promising ideas.

Will you join us? Please enter the challenge, submit your ideas, share your thoughts and comments, and help us make the home the center of a smart energy future. Who knows? One of the ideas selected could be yours.

GE will present each of five innovation challenge award recipients with $100,000 in cash, for a total of $500,000, to acknowledge these entries as examples of outstanding entrepreneurship and innovation.
