The Power Play Awards are back!

What started as a spark in 2019 has grown into a bright and vibrant flame as the Power Play Awards enters its seventh year of shining a light on the accomplishments of remarkable women and men who uphold the importance of supporting and empowering others in the workplace. They demonstrate how a mutually supportive environment can help support great business outcomes across all parts of the LNG and decarbonization value chains. 

Nominations for the 2025 awards are now open, and below are the four award categories for which you can help us recognize advances in LNG and decarbonization and the remarkable professionals who make them happen.  The Rising Star, Pioneer and Ambassador categories are focused on the LNG industry while the Low Carbon Accelerator category is open to the decarbonization industry.   

The Rising Star - Outstanding Young Professional 

The Rising Star Award celebrates a woman, 35 or younger, who is excelling early in her career. She shows tenacity, resiliency and positive energy through her already noteworthy contributions in the LNG industry. Valued by peers and mentors as part of the next generation of leadership, she’s building a brighter future. 

The Pioneer - Outstanding Business, Innovation and/or Technology Contribution 

The Pioneer Award honors a person who has delivered outstanding business results or innovation and technology leadership amid the ever-evolving energy transition landscape. Colleagues might note their unrelenting positive energy, steadfast reliability or unique ability to drive growth in the industry, but they likely describe themselves as someone who thrives on success. Qualifying activities may include, for example, the closing of a large deal, spearheading technology development/deployment, a new installation, a cost-saving initiative or an innovative commercial deal.

The Ambassador - Outstanding Leadership 

The Ambassador Award honors a person who, through their words, actions and positive energy, inspires those who work with and around them. This individual has a collaborative leadership style that builds connections, fosters productive relationships, finds solutions and drives the diversity and inclusion initiative forward. They create opportunities for others, and either consciously or not, act as a role model in their field. They carry a sense of purpose in all that they do, whilst maintaining a commitment to ethical work practices with the aim of being a responsible global citizen. 

The Low Carbon Accelerator – Outstanding Collaboration and Innovation 

The Low Carbon Accelerator Award recognizes a woman who is making significant contributions by leveraging innovation and collaboration to accelerate society’s path to net zero. She has a remarkable talent for uniting parties with diverse interests towards a shared objective of decarbonization. Her innovative thinking and unwavering commitment to overcoming complex challenges is truly inspiring. Whether through research and development or by forging strategic alliances, partnerships, or deals, she is driving the transition forward.
