Empower a Billion Lives crowdsources solutions to energy access with all funding directed to Empower a Billion Lives team support and prizes. Teams develop business plans and solutions that are regionally relevant and provide a productive level of energy access to last-mile communities at an affordable price where the average income is less than USD $1.90 per day.
EBL has had 50 winning teams and is launching EBL 2025 next summer. Help us support teams providing productive, scalable, sustainable energy.
IEEE Empower a Billion Lives is organized by the IEEE Power Electronics Society, all administrative and organizational costs are borne by the IEEE Power Electronics Society and 100% of all donations go to support EBL teams and prizes.
