Regional Awards Entry Criteria
What you need to know before entering.
The Regional Energy Efficiency Awards, are open to anyone involved in the Energy Saving and Efficiency sector within the region.
The purpose of the Awards is to recognise, locally, best practice within the industry; so the judges will be looking for demonstrable skills, expertise and quality of service from nominees.
Applicants can either nominate themselves, their company, someone else or a company they feel deserves the recognition of the industry.
The nominee must have been involved with an energy efficiency project of some kind within the region within the 14 months from the beginning of January 2022 to the end of February 2023.
For most categories of award, an involvement in Green Deal, Green Homes Grant, ECO or RHI projects during the period is essential. However, for those categories not related to Green Deal,ECO or RHI please see the specific criteria and entry requirements for those Awards.

There are 11 Award Categories at each of the Regional Energy Efficiency Awards and 22 categories at the National Energy Efficiency Awards. As long as you meet the criteria for those categories you can enter as many categories as you like. - Decide if you are nominating yourself or someone else
While most people either nominate themselves, it is possible to nominate someone else for an award. If you feeel that a organisation or individual you work with should be recognised for an award, you can nominate them for an award. We only ask that you make sure you have all the information you need to complete the nomination form, and that the nominee is aware that you are nominating them.
