The Euromoney and Ernst & Young Renewable Energy Awards were founded in 2004 to recognise excellence and innovation in the renewable energy industry, and this year’s awards will be presented during the Gala Dinner after Day One of REFF-London on 20th September.

Judging Process: Using information freely available in the public domain, an independent judging panel will compile a shortlist of nominees in each category. Each nominee will then be invited to submit further information as to why they should win the award, before the panel makes its final decision. The Awards cover the period from 1 August 2009 to 31 July.

The 2010 Awards Dinner will take place in the austere Great Hall at The Honourable Society of Lincoln’s Inn, London. Attendance is complimentary to REFF-London participants, but space is limited and will be allocated on a first come- first-served basis. 2010.
