The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), supported by the United Arab
Emirates, announced three recipients of the newly established IRENA NewGen Rising Stars Award. IRENA, in collaboration with Social Alpha and the Enel Foundation launched the NewGen Renewable Energy Accelerator (NewGen) Programme which seeks to empower youth to be active participants in the energy transition by providing them with the tools, knowledge and support needed to develop and implement their ideas.
The IRENA NewGen Award selected the 8 best solutions from the accelerator programme and granted those entrepreneurs an opportunity to pitch their ideas in front of potential investors and investment experts. IRENA and its guest panel of judges then ultimately selected three winners from Nigeria, United States of America, Romania, India, Argentina, China, and Sri Lanka.
Among the winners is Augusto Diaz, Head of Projects, HD Photovoltaics who is a member of the SDG7 youth constituency and an active youth voice making meaningful contributions to the global energy transition. Big Congratulations to all the winners.
