About the Roger Léron Award
The Award celebrates inspiring individuals and projects driving the energy and climate transition at the local and regional levels across Europe. It was established in memory of Roger Léron, a true pioneer in sustainable energy and the founder of FEDARENE, to honour efforts that create a lasting impact and help shape a more sustainable future.
The 2025 Edition
At FEDARENE, we are committed to ensuring that our initiatives reflect the diversity and inclusiveness of the sustainable future we are striving to shape. That’s why the 2025 Roger Léron Award will feature four distinct categories:
- Longstanding Achievement Award: Celebrating individuals with over 25 years of dedication to sustainable energy and climate action.
- Youth Leadership Award: Honouring the exceptional efforts of young leaders aged 20–30.
- Outstanding Achievement Award: For those who excel in the field but don’t fit the other individual categories.
- Innovative Action Award: Recognising groundbreaking projects advancing climate and energy goals.
A distinguished jury of six esteemed experts will select three outstanding changemakers and one groundbreaking project as winners, evaluating them based on their leadership, vision, impact, and potential for scalability.
Why Submit a Nomination?
The nomination period is finally open, and we’re counting on you to help us identify and celebrate the changemakers shaping Europe’s energy and climate future. Whether it’s an individual or a project, submitting a nomination is your opportunity to:
- Highlight the vital role of local and regional governance in climate action.
- Recognise and inspire impactful action in the field of sustainable energy.
