Good Practice of the Year Award Edition 2023

The first ‘Good Practice of the Year’ awards were granted ten years ago in 2013. Since then, the Renewables Grid Initiative (RGI) has awarded twenty organisations for their outstanding work in integrating renewables onto the grid and deploying electricity infrastructure. Across three impact areas – communication and engagement; environmental protection; and technological innovation and system integration – these awards shine a spotlight on those striving to improve the relationships between the grid, biodiversity, and communities.

To celebrate this milestone, we have added some fresh paint to our competition title, which will from now on be known as the ‘RGI Grid Awards: Good Practice of the Year’. In addition, we held a public vote among participating past winners for the ‘10th Anniversary All-Star’ award. Together with the ‘Good Practice of the Year’ award, the winners were announced during the ‘RGI Grid Awards’ ceremony in November 2023.
