The Energy Institute (EI) Awards’ judging panel, made up of 20 energy professionals representing a variety of sectors and specialisms, have shortlisted the entries for this year’s EI Awards competition.

The EI Awards promote excellence and innovation in energy and acknowledge the important contribution made to society by those working in the sector. The awards will be presented to the winners by Baroness Tanni Grey-Thompson DBE, former paralympic athlete, on 12 November at the Sheraton Park Lane Hotel, London.

Lynda Armstrong OBE FEI, Chair of Trustees, British Safety Council, and Chair of the EI Awards’ judging panel, says, ‘The EI Awards recognise and celebrate the best of the global energy sector. Having worked in energy for more than 35 years, I was honoured to support this competition as chair of the judging panel. The number, quality and diversity of submissions each year continue to impress me and my fellow judges. The entries show a real commitment to the profession, and demonstrate how the energy sector can be a force for positive change in what is a challenging environment to work in. We have a fantastic shortlist of projects that showcase a wide range of technologies and innovation across varied industries and I look forward to joining the EI on 12 November to announce this year’s winners.’
