    ENGIE Indonesia Innovation Contest

    In the framework of ENGIE Innovation Week from 15th to 19th

    June, ENGIE Indonesia is organizing a call for innovative

    projects.

    What we are looking for:

    A company, start-up or entrepreneur with an innovative project

    relating to any of the following themes:

    Energy Efficiency

    Adapting energy production to demand is a key element in energy transition. ENGIE develops solutions for

    smart energy and energy storage to respond most effectively to its clients needs, while reducing the

    environmental impact of energy production and consumption.

    New renewable energies

    Renewable energies are at the heart of ENGIEs strategy and include marine energy, wind, solar, and

    biomass. The Group devotes significant resources to research programs in emerging renewable energies:

    offshore wind, geothermal, tidal, biomethane, microalgae and concentrated solar thermodynamic power.

    Smart technologies

    Facing the growing demand for energy while limiting CO2 emissions presents the big challenge of

    producing and consuming intelligently. Smart grids are directional tools that help turn energy transition into

    a more cooperative, more efficient open electrical system.

    Smart cities and mobility

    The economics of buildings for cities of the future, regional energy conservation, the fluidity of the

    sustainable citysnetwork, security and sharing of urban spaces, real-time management of connected cities

    ... ENGIE gets involved at the earliest possible stages of major urban projects in order to contribute to

    sustainable mobility.

    21st century gas

    The intermittence of renewable energy complicates managing the balance between supply and demand.

    The principle of Power to Gas depends on warehousing excess renewable energy production by

    transforming it into hydrogen or methane.
