The European Energy Efficiency Award of the Year 2026 recognises outstanding individual leadership in advancing energy efficiency as a cornerstone of Europe’s energy transition, competitiveness, and energy security. The Award aims to highlight those who have made a meaningful and lasting contribution to placing energy efficiency at the heart of European policy and industrial transformation.
Nominations will be assessed on the basis of three core evaluation criteria: impact, leadership, and replicability.
