Audience Award for Small and Medium Enterprises

The commitment of small and medium enterprises who, despite limited resources, recognise the challenges of the energy transition as an opportunity and lead the way, are at the forefront in this category.

The panel of judges nominates three projects out of all entries for the award categories. The nominees present their projects as a live pitch on stage during the award show. The winner is chosen through an online vote, which starts in October 2026.
