The Awards Secretariat has announced the nominees for all 19 of this year’s competitive categories for the Ghana Energy Awards (GEA), which will be presented in 2022.
The 90-day nominations window for application submissions, which began with the official media announcement on July 14, has now ended, leading to the publication of the candidates’ list.
The theme for the sixth Ghana Energy Awards is “Global Decarbonization: A Just and Equitable Energy Transition in Ghana.”
The Ministry of Energy, the World Energy Council Ghana, and Mazars have all given their approval. It is being put on by the Energy Media Group in collaboration with GP Business Consulting.
Over 100 nominees across the petroleum and power subsectors of the energy industry are featured for the competitive categories for this year and include the prestigious Energy Personality of the Year (Male and Female), Chief Executive of the Year (Power and Petroleum), Visionary Leadership Award, and the Eco-Innovation Business Award.
Others are the Outstanding Energy Management Award, and Sustainable Energy Partnership of the Year, Energy Institution of the Year, Energy Company of the Year, Brand of the Year, Rising Star Award, Energy Reporter of the Year, among others.
Toward the main event next month, the Awards Secretariat is undertaking a number of activities, including Courtesy Calls on industry partners; Nominees’ Announcement; Site Visitation to Prospective Nominees’ Project Sites to ascertain the accuracy of claims made by nominees on the ground. These activities make the GEA one of few award schemes which insist on field verification to ensure awards won by players at the close of the review period are duly deserved.
Industry partners for this year’s GEA include the Volta River Authority, Ghana Gas, Bui Power Authority, COPEC-Ghana, National Petroleum Authority, Meinergy Technology, Sunon Asogli Power, GOIL, Energy Commission, PURC, ECG, Tullow Ghana, BOST, and Hendan Transport and Logistics.
