Pop Up City Contest | Military

none

Value

A chance to win the grand prize of $2.0 million.

Description

The Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) must be ready to deploy on short notice, in any climate and for prolonged periods. The CAF presently relies on Relocatable Temporary Camps (RTCs) for its deployments that sustain personnel through demanding operational and environmental conditions.

The Innovation for Defence Excellence and Security (IDEaS) Program is calling on innovators to propose and develop solutions that provide integrated energy, water and waste management systems for the CAF’s RTCs deployed in national and international operations.

The “Pop up city” contest is a multi-phased contest for innovators to propose and develop reliable, energy efficient, integrated and scalable energy, water and waste management systems for RTCs. Contests are a competitive means of finding innovative solutions and awarding prizes to the best solutions derived from the innovation community. Specifically, this Contest is seeking solutions designed to manage the energy, water and waste needs of a 150 to 1,500-person RTC, operating in a temperate climate zone.

Eligible Applicants

The Department of National Defence’s (DND) Innovation for Defence Excellence and Security (IDEaS) Program is calling innovators on to propose and develop solutions that provide integrated energy, water and waste management systems for the CAF’s Relocatable Temporary Camps (RTC) deployed in national and international operations.

Eligible Expenses

The objectives of the Pop up City Contest are to:

  1. Stimulate the innovation and development of solutions that significantly reduce RTC fuel and water inputs, and waste outputs, while maintaining specified performance capacities.
  2. Build on Canadian strengths to develop solutions that achieve a reduction of current fuel and water input and waste output by the following specific targets:
    1. at least a 33% reduction in the fuel supplied to the RTCs;
    2. at least a 33% reduction of the current potable water supplied to the RTCs; and
    3. at least a 33% reduction in the solid and liquid waste requiring disposal from the RTCs.
