Out of over 260 global applicants, only 24 were selected. EnKoat was one of them chosen to present at the EPRI Incubatenergy Labs® 2026 Challenge in Atlanta as a recognized Energy Innovator. It's a designation that reflects both the strength of IntelliKoat™ as a technology and the urgency of the problem it solves.

EPRI: the Electric Power Research Institute, is one of the most respected independent research organizations in the energy sector. The Incubatenergy Labs® Challenge is their platform for identifying and accelerating the most promising energy innovations from around the world. Being selected as one of 24 Energy Innovators from a global pool of 260+ applicants places EnKoat among a highly vetted group of technologies with genuine potential to reshape how the world produces, manages, and conserves energy.

In Atlanta, our CEO Dr. Matthew Aguayo represented EnKoat on stage, presenting IntelliKoat™ as a dual-layer thermal and weather barrier coating engineered to reduce cooling energy use, extend roof life, and improve overall building efficiency — delivering measurable impact across commercial, industrial, and institutional facilities without full roof replacement.

The event was hosted by Georgia Power and Southern Company, bringing together energy leaders, utilities, and innovators focused on practical solutions to the built environment's most pressing energy challenges.

For EnKoat, the EPRI Incubatenergy Labs® 2026 Challenge is more than recognition — it's a doorway to pilot projects, utility partnerships, and real-world impact at a scale that matches the ambition behind IntelliKoat™. Thank you to the EPRI and Incubatenergy Labs team, and to Georgia Power and Southern Company for hosting.

This is just the beginning.
