Energy Alums Named Top Young Innovators
Two MIT energy alums were named top “Innovators under 35” by MIT Technology Review. The alums, Miles Barr and Sarah Kearney, are now part of a legacy of innovators named annually by the magazine, such as Google co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin and Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg.
Miles Barr
is the cofounder of Ubiquitous Energy, which is developing transparent
solar cells to be used to power e-readers, smartphones and tables – and
maybe one day whole buildings. Barr was also named to Forbes’ 30 Under 30 Energy & Industry list earlier this year. Learn more about the research behind his company.
Sarah Kearney
is the founder of the nonprofit Prime Coalition, which helps private
foundations invest in energy-related startups. Prize money from a 2012 Women in Clean Energy award, supported by the MIT Energy Initiative, helped Kearney hit the ground running during the early days of starting Prime.
