Challenge blurb	Make a big splash – help support the development of tomorrow’s hydropower technologies!
Challenge description	Advanced manufacturing technologies are revolutionizing the way products are designed and built across countless industries. And while the benefits of advanced manufacturing are well-understood, the high-impact opportunities for incorporating it into hydropower have yet to be tapped. The I AM Hydro Prize aims to strengthen hydropower by applying advanced manufacturing technologies to reduce construction costs and repair frequency, improve efficiency and energy capture, and more. I AM Hydro is designed to: • Spur innovation by engaging a national community of visionaries who are not typically associated with the hydropower industry • Target levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) reductions in hydropower design, manufacturing, and operation and maintenance.
