GPS IGNITE
Company-wide innovation. Real problems. Real solutions.
Phase 1 is open — Submit your problem statement and shape the future of GPS Renewables.
What is GPS IGNITE?
Identify
Real pain points from domain experts across GPS Renewables. Operations, safety, compliance, data — every department has problems worth solving.
Build
Cross-functional teams of domain experts, developers, and designers collaborate to build working prototypes in a time-boxed innovation sprint.
Deploy
Winners deliver real value — solutions are rolled into job deliverables and may become official GPS Renewables projects.
Innovation Themes
Operations & Efficiency
Optimize plant operations, reduce downtime, improve yield. From preventive maintenance scheduling to production KPI dashboards.
Digital & Data
Leverage IoT, automation, and data analytics to extract insights from raw operational data and drive better decisions.
Safety & Compliance
HSE improvement, audit automation, incident prevention. Build tools that keep people safe and compliance airtight.
Sustainability & Carbon
Carbon credit tracking, emissions monitoring, green compliance. Help GPS Renewables lead on sustainability commitments.
People & Process
Workflow improvement, knowledge management, onboarding. Make the GPS team more effective and connected.
How It Works
Problem Discovery
21 Jul – 9 Aug 2026
Submit problem statements. Domain experts identify real pain points across GPS Renewables. A panel shortlists the best problems to advance.
Panel Review
10–15 Aug 2026
The review panel evaluates all submissions for clarity, impact, and feasibility. The strongest problems are selected to advance to Phase 2.
Prototype & Grand Finale
16 Aug – 10 Sep 2026
Cross-functional teams form and build solutions. Top solutions are demonstrated at the Grand Finale and rolled out as real GPS projects.
How We Judge
Practical Impact
Does it solve a real GPS problem that matters? Will it make a measurable difference to operations, safety, or efficiency?
Problem Clarity
Is the problem well-defined with a measurable scope? Can reviewers clearly understand the pain point and its scale?
AI Effectiveness
Is AI or technology used meaningfully — not just for show? Does the approach match the problem's complexity?
Execution
Is the solution complete, functional, and demonstrable? Does it work end-to-end within the MVP scope?
