Awards

What started as a spark in 2019 has grown into a bright and vibrant flame as the Power Play Awards enters its eighth 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.

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. Nominations will open on March 25, 2026.
