Award criteria

Entry deadline: Friday 27th March 2026 (17:00 CET)
Nominees must be SAP customers

These categories showcase the most impactful, forward-looking Energy & Utilities projects delivered with SAP. Whether you advanced technology, drove transformation, or enhanced the customer experience, share the story that best reflects your achievement.

★ 1. Artificial intelligence (AI)

Showcase Energy & Utilities industry projects where SAP Business AI made a real difference. Focus on smarter decisions, automated processes, predictive insights, or improved customer interactions. We’re looking for stories where AI moved from concept to measurable impact.

Quick tip: Show us the before and after—quantify reduced effort, fewer errors, faster response times, or new capabilities unlocked.

★ 2. Innovation

Showcase bold ideas, new approaches, and solutions that challenged the status quo—projects that make others say, “I didn’t even know that was possible.”

Quick tip: Highlight the point of inspiration and the inventive twist that set your solution apart.

★ 3. Best team success

Showcase exceptional collaboration—cross-functional teamwork and partnerships that turned complex projects into smooth, coordinated wins. This category is about people, not tech stacks.

Quick tip: Tell us about the teamwork magic. What made this group special? How did they communicate, adapt, or lead together?

★ 4. Transformation

Showcase a project that fundamentally reshaped how the company works—operationally, digitally, or culturally.

Quick tip: Frame your entry as a journey—where you began, what needed to change, and what’s different now.

★ 5. Customer first

Showcase an initiative that put the customer at the centre: improving experience, access, trust, or service reliability. This category focuses on human impact.

Quick tip: Share evidence of customer benefit—higher satisfaction, reduced wait times, clearer communication, fewer complaints, or better proactive service.
