Our esteemed panel of eight judges is represented by experts in the water and energy sectors. Once all entries and nominations have been received our panel will carefully consider them. The panel will compile a shortlist from which the winners will be decided in a closed round of judging. Winners will be announced at the WEX Global Awards Ceremony. They will be used to promote an innovative future in the industry and will demonstrate excellence through outstanding achievement in relation to innovation, sustainability, efficiency and collaboration.
Experts ranging from engineers, economists, the EU, scientists and environmental practitioners now agree that we need to facilitate circular economy measures as quickly as possible to protect the planet and our future resources. Water lies at the heart of this: used for everything from life to industry, its depletion and pollution has devastating consequences. As legislation finally starts to lead the way, we are waking up to the realisation that we actually have the systems and technologies right now to make the necessary future changes.
In the water sector, utilities and industrial water users globally are finding innovative solutions to the changes in areas including the following:-
To make positive change happen quickly, it’s important that the best examples of circular economy strategies in the water sector are broadcast widely and made public – to this end please submit your entries for the WEX Awards and tell us your achievements!
The Awards are open to any and every recent water / wastewater project which includes a smart circular economy component.
The winners in each category will be selected by an international, cross-sector panel of judges. There will be one very special prize yet to be announced … watch this space!
We will list the best submitted projects on a special showcase page here before the final judging. The winners will be announced and trophies presented at the Gala Dinner on 2nd March at WEX Global 2021 to be held at the Oceanografic in Valencia.
The Awards are open to all companies and organisations that have made a significant contribution to the water and wastewater sector, with special emphasis on innovative energy reduction and environmental considerations; the sustainable future; financial resilience, and innovation.

WEX, the water and energy exchange, occupies a unique place in the water conference calendar. Business meetings and conversations lie at the heart of WEX, along with the principle of ‘exchange’; the exchange of ideas and philosophies, of business cards, of solutions, and of methodologies, to form strong networks on which to build strong relationships.
