Presented by [**Future Use of Energy in Louisiana (FUEL)**](https://fuelouisiana.org/), this competition is part of the Louisiana Energy Transition Engine, a major initiative funded by the **National Science Foundation (NSF) Regional Innovation Engines program**. With a historic $160 million award—the largest and most competitive NSF has ever granted—plus an additional **$67.5 million from Louisiana Economic Development**, this initiative is accelerating Louisiana’s transition toward a cleaner energy future. Finalists in the competition will present their innovations to a panel of judges, competing for funding and support to scale their impact. From renewable energy solutions to cutting-edge carbon capture technologies, these startups represent the next wave of environmental innovation. The competition provides a platform for networking, collaboration, and investment in a more sustainable future.
