Focusing on home and business systems as a whole, Current Energy saves customers money on products, services and utility bills.  They are featured in “Big ideas for a Small Planet: Gadgets” airing on June 17^th.

Contestants will submit their one-minute short film or photo essay featuring their “Big Idea” at the contest site between April 1 and May 20.   Sundance Channel will select the top 25 entries to be viewed and voted on by users between May 27 and June 24. The five proposals to receive the most votes will be reviewed by a panel of environmental experts who will pick the winner.  Pieces will be judged on creativity, overall theme, feasibility and presentation.   The winner will be announced the week of July 7^th.
