Judges for 2027 are currently being confirmed. See 2026’s judges below for an example of the calibre we recruit.
Judging process
The Energy Awards are well known for their rigorous and thorough judging process, designed to ensure only the most deserving projects, individuals, teams and organisations win.
The Energy Awards 2027 will have a two-stage judging process. In the first round, in order to be in with a chance of being shortlisted, you MUST answer all of the questions on this entry form.
If you fail to adequately answer any of the questions, or enter the wrong category, your entry maybe removed from the competition and not considered for shortlisting.
If you are shortlisted, and as part of the second stage of the process, you may then be required to provide additional information/financials/images/examples of product ahead of the judging days.
Again, failure to provide information when requested, at this stage, could result in your entry being removed from the shortlist.
The Energy Awards reserves the right to move your entry to a different category from the one you entered, if the team deem that an alternative category is more suitable for your entry.
Hints and tips for completing your entry

- In your submissions, please set out for the judges what you did that was innovative during the 18 months from 1 June 2025, until the closing date for the awards of 19 February 2027, as opposed to other years/time periods
- Answer every question on the entry form as far as possible but do not exceed the word count . If a particular entry question is not applicable, please make this clear.
- Please complete every answer as bullet points
- Please note if you go over the wordcount, or fail to answer in bullet point form, you may risk your entry being removed and not considered
- All of our judges have to sign an NDA so please don’t worry about sharing sensitive information about your business, as this will not be shared with others outside of the judging process
- Our categories are split into three sections: General, People/Organisations and Product. Please review all sections carefully to ensure you are entering the correct category for your project or business and remember, entries are free, so you can enter as many categories as you like.
