Powering Agriculture: Innovations to End Extreme Poverty and Hunger

In its inaugural round, more than 475 organizations from 80 countries applied to the Powering Agriculture: An Energy Grand Challenge for Development initiative, which identifies and supports market-based, clean energy innovations for the energy-agriculture value chain in developing countries.

On December 11, the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) hosted an event in Washington, D.C., to announce the first 11 Powering Agriculture winners. The event brought together experts from around the globe to discuss cutting-edge solutions to the development challenges that exist at the nexus of energy and agriculture.
