Good Practice of the Year Award 2018 Edition

The “Good Practice of the Year” award is presented annually to three innovative and exemplary practices that have contributed to the implementation of the energy transition. Our award has grown: we are already in the fith year and appreciate the good quality of the many applications we have received over the years. While we consider the award ceremony at the Energy Infrastructure Forum a highlight in our annual calendar and think that the winners deserve all the praise they receive, it is the Olympic spirit that counts: participating is more important than winning. This is why this brochure introduces not only the three winning practices, but also many other interesting submissions and encourages others to replicate their approaches.

The submitted initiatives contribute to the progress of integrating renewables into the grid, support environmental protection or engage the public and other stakeholders in a meaningful way. This year, a record number of projects were submitted from Europe, the UK and North America in the three categories “Technology & Design, Communication & Participation and Environmental Protection”
