President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo will grace this year’s Ghana Energy Awards (GEA) as the Special Guest of Honour.
Scheduled for November 25, 2022 at the Labadi Beach Hotel, Accra, the 6th edition of the awards is under the theme: ‘Global Decarbonisation: A Just and Equitable Energy Transition in Ghana’. It is organised by the Energy Media Group, in partnership with GP Business Consulting, and is endorsed by the Ministry of Energy, World Energy Council Ghana, with validation by Mazars.
Over 100 individuals and institutions from the petroleum and power sub-sectors will compete for awards in the competitive categories for this year. Categories include the prestigious Energy Personality of the Year, Chief Executive of the Year – Power and Petroleum, Visionary Leadership Award, the Eco-Innovation Business Award, among.
The special non-competitive honours comprise the Lifetime Achievement, Exemplary Leadership, Women in Energy, and Osagyefo Young Leadership Awards.
Ahead of the main event on 25th of this month, the Awards Secretariat is undertaking site visits to nominees’ project sites to ascertain the accuracy of claims made by nominees on 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, GRIDCo, BOST, ECG, and Hendan Transport Logistics.
