The world's richest venture capitalist Fiona McCallister learned the hard way that money can't buy you everything. Grieving from the loss of her daughter who died in the 2018 London Smog Event, she decides to run a competition to try to find a new, revolutionary and renewable way of generating electricity. The prize-a life changing billion dollar contract to produce the design. Struggling to balance life as both a leading renewable energy scientist and as a single father, Joe Grayson is currently working on the next generation of wind turbines. Frustrated in his current role, by needless bureaucracy and government funding cutbacks, Joe takes up McCallister's challenge and learns that some people in clean energy can play dirty, and that the best ideas can sometimes come from the most unusual places.
