Welcome to the Community Energy Innovation Prize!
Launching today, this competition will award nearly $7.5 million in cash prizes as well as mentorship opportunities to organizations supporting innovation, entrepreneurship, capacity building, and economic development in communities historically underrepresented in climate and energy technology funding.
This prize is the successor the Department of Energy's Inclusive Energy Innovation Prize, and the Community Clean Energy Coalition Prize. If you are coming from those prizes, welcome!
The Summary page will give you a brief overview of the prize details. The Official Rules will give you an in-depth look at every aspect of the competition. And make sure to check out the Timeline for important dates.
