India is on a mission to reach 500 GW of non-fossil fuel capacity by 2030 and Net Zero by 2070. This shift is no longer just aspirational; it is operational, driven by the National Green Hydrogen Mission, nuclear energy growth, and rapid renewable expansion.
Delivering this requires scalable, infrastructure-ready innovation. Solutions must be engineered for safety, efficiency, sustainability, and lifecycle resilience -powered by precision engineering and collaborative problem-solving. The future of clean energy will be built by innovators ready to scale bold ideas.
Your journey begins here.
We are proud to introduce the Energize India Hackathon 2026, an initiative by Dassault Systèmes India. This program brings together energy startups, MSMEs, OEMs, policy-makers, researchers and industry professionals to co-create next-generation solutions across hydrogen, nuclear, renewables, solar, energy storage, battery technology and industrial decarbonization.
Powered by Virtual Twin technology on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, you will gain the tools to ideate, simulate, and validate scalable solutions ready for real-world deployment.
This is your opportunity to help engineer India’s journey toward energy security, clean energy leadership, and a sustainable Net Zero future.
Why Join the Hackathon?
- Platform Access: Get access to 3DEXPERIENCE Platform industry solutions and hands-on intensive training.
- Expert Mentorship: Receive direct support from the 3DEXPERIENCE Lab to develop your project, startup, or research.
- High-Stakes Exposure: Showcase your innovation at 3DEXPERIENCE Forums and receive official recognition from Dassault Systèmes.
- Elite Jury: Opportunity to showcase your ideas to a distinguished jury from NITI Aayog, National & State Government Startup Missions, Ministry of New & Renewable Energy and Executives from Top Energy Conglomerates.
Submission Domains & Guidelines:
All submissions must align with one of the four official domains:
- Hydrogen Innovation Ecosystem
- Renewable Energy Systems (Solar, Wind & Tidal)
- Energy Storage & Battery Technologies
- Nuclear Energy Innovation
Your submission should:
- Demonstrate Scalability: Show real-world use-cases and applicability
- Articulate Impact: Clearly define measurable gains in efficiency, cost, sustainability, safety, or performance
- Systems-Level Thinking: Reflect integration across design, manufacturing, infrastructure, or operations
- Virtual Twin Potential: Outline how Virtual Twins will be leveraged to model, simulate, design, or optimize your solution
- Technical Roadmap: Present a structured path toward prototyping, validation, and commissioning
Quality Standards: Concepts with technical depth and original work will be highly valued. Please note that plagiarized content or generic AI-generated concepts lacking technical depth will be discouraged to maintain the engineering integrity of the hackathon.
