Large hotel chains

Solar panel companies

In regards to finding the right collaborator, what is the most immediate or most pressing challenge you're facing right now?

Funding would be the largest challenge because this idea of solar power and sustainability is very expensive

BONUS QUESTION: What is it about your idea that makes you feel good?

I've always been interested in solar power and green power in general so the idea of converting large tourism businesses to solar power excites me!

What makes your idea innovative? Why has no one ever done it before?

This idea has large costs associated with it, and while some have gone green, many businesses resist just based on the large cost with solar power.

How far does your idea reach?

Global

Ideally, when would you launch this idea?

In a year

Who will benefit the most from your idea?

The surrounding community would benefit the most as it would bring sustainable tourism to the area and it would also help preserve the environment by not using harmful power sources.

At Sigmund, we are interested in ideas at the intersection of People, Planet, and Profit. How does your idea support these three categories?

This idea will help protect the plant because the tourism industry is huge, so if they all were to adopt the idea of green energy it would make a significant positive impact on climate change! The people in the surrounding communities would also benefit as it would mean more jobs for them and their community would also ideally have less pollution. Lastly, there are also numerous government incentives when it comes to solar power and green power, so this would support the profit category.

Making the world a better place can seem daunting. At Sigmund, we have found this list of UN Goals to be a great compass. What UN goals would you say your idea relates to?

Good Health and Well-being

Affordable and Clean Energy

Sustainable Cities and Communities

Climate Action

Partnerships to achieve the Goal
