C4E Champion Award 2025

We are excited to announce the 2nd edition of the C4E Champion Award.

The C4E Champion Award is organized by C4E Forum organizers to recognize the extraordinary contribution of public officials and elected local officials in Central and Eastern Europe to progressing energy efficiency policies in their country or region. The Award is organised every two years with an award ceremony at the C4E Forum.

Key Changes in the 2025 Edition

This year, each country will have a National Champion instead of a national nominee. Among these national winners, one will be selected as the Regional Champion. National Champions will receive a fee waiver to participate in the C4E Forum 2025, covering accommodation and meals. Renovate Europe will oversee the decision-making process for selecting the National Champions.

The winners will be officially announced at the C4E Forum Award Ceremony on 21 May.

For details on the rules and criteria, please refer to the Bylaws, and access the nomination form here.
