Our lives are defined by innovation, and since you’re reading this on a computer, connected to the internet, you know what I mean.

GE was founded on new ideas and continues to drive innovation to solve the world’s toughest problems. As part of that, we are proud to announce the winners of the GE ecomagination Challenge, an exciting new way of finding and funding the most promising technological breakthroughs for our power grid.
