New York's Next Idea Comes From Students in India

By Patrick McGeehan

January 7, 2010


The next big idea for a business that could help solve New York City's energy problems may have been devised by three students from India who had never visited the city before this week.


The winning idea is a system for storing energy in large batteries around the city that would discharge electricity into the power grid to meet demand. The flexible mechanism could serve as a backup source to avert gaps in the power supply and make the grid more reliable, according to the winning entry.


Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg announced that the trio of students from the Indian Institute of Technology in Madras had won the inaugural NYC Next Idea contest, sponsored by the city's Economic Development Corporation. The contest is one of the mayor's initiatives to improve the city's image as a place that is hospitable to entrepreneurs.
