The Awards program, now in its 26th year and often described as the "Oscars" of the energy industry, recognizes corporate and individual innovation, leadership, and performance in the energy and chemicals industry, and bestowed honors on energy companies from Australia, Canada, France, India, Spain, Turkey, UAE, UK, and the US. For a fourth consecutive year, CNBC correspondent Kristina Partsinevelos, whose reporting appears on television and CNBC's digital platforms, emceed the event, continuing a long history of CNBC guest hosts at the Awards gala.   

Mark Eramo, Co-President of S&P Global Commodity Insights, said: "This year's Awards stand on the foundation of the event's quarter-century history as the industry's premier recognition event and celebrate the energy industry's commitment to meeting the needs of future generations with traditional and renewable fuels, flexibility and innovation. We congratulate the winners and finalists alike, and wish them continued success."   

Spanish multinational energy and petrochemical company Repsol was the evening's triple winner, walking away with Energy Company of the Year and the Energy Transition – Downstream Award honors, as well as the Strategic Deal of the Year Award, winning praise from the panel of independent judges for its modernization efforts, carbon emission reductions, and strategic investments in sustainable energy solutions. Judges pointed to its biofuels advancements, producing renewable fuels from organic waste and one plant alone preventing 900,000 tons of CO2 emissions annually and its transformation of 4,500 service stations to lower-carbon fuel alternatives. Repsol secured Strategic Deal of the Year Award for its $768 million acquisition of US renewable energy platform ConnectGen, which enhanced its international presence and entry into US onshore wind, with a global goal of reaching 20,000 megawatts of installed wind capacity by 2030 and being a multi-energy leader in sustainability.

In the individual achievement categories of the Platts Global Energy Awards, winners included the below:  

  • Chief Executive of the Year honors went to Lorenzo Simonelli, CEO of energy technology company Baker Hughes, with judges heralding his "transformative" leadership since 2017, driving the company toward significant emissions reductions and operational efficiency. Under his helmsmanship, Baker Hughes achieved record revenues of $25.5 billion in 2023 and secured $750 million in new energy orders, focusing on low- to no-carbon solutions. Judges spotlighted Simonelli's strategic vision, commitment to energy transition, and ability to foster a diverse and dedicated corporate culture.
  • Chief Trailblazer of the Year was bestowed upon Greg Jackson, CEO of financial services and energy firm Octopus Energy Group, with judges calling him a "visionary" and impressed by the growth in his "first-mover" company 2016 to date, into a global clean energy technology business, serving more than seven million households across 18 countries. 
  • Dr. Katherine Mizrahi Rodriguez, Co-founder and Chief Implementation Officer of Osmoses, an industrial molecule separations technology company, received the Rising Star Award--Individual, recognized by judges for her technical expertise, dedication to diversity in cleantech and leadership in groundbreaking work in revolutionizing gas separation processes, which significantly reduce environmental impact.
  • The Lifetime Achievement Award went to Jeffrey W. Martin, CEO of Sempra, an energy infrastructure company, for his career-long contributions to the US energy industry, with judges describing him as "one of the most respected individuals" in the field and noting his rise from West Point graduate and US Army officer to a leader at Sempra Energy, serving over 40 million consumers. Judges were impressed by Martin's quick transformation of Sempra since becoming CEO in 2018 into a top energy infrastructure company, enhancing energy security and promoting a lower-carbon society. Also highlighted by judges was Martin's advocacy for energy transition as a governor at the World Economic Forum and his prior win of the Platts Global Energy Awards' Chief Executive of the Year in 2020, helping to solidify his status as a "spectacular leader" in the sector.

Dave Ernsberger, Co-President of S&P Global Commodity Insights, said: "Being an exemplary leader in the current energy environment is no small feat." Pointing to a perspective "The era of 'new molecule' markets" in the events' Commodity Insights Magazine, Ernsberger underscored the commitment, fortitude and innovation it takes to navigate a rapidly changing energy landscape, where the future-of-energy challenges reach beyond the mix of conventional and renewable energy sources to also include emissions, energy origins, and corporate values. "Success will go to those organizations that develop new solutions, insight and information that align financial incentives able to advance the decarbonization objectives that markets, governments and consumers demand." 

The judges panel chose the winners of the Platts Global Energy Awards from finalists selected from nominations that represented 33 different countries. S&P Global Commodity Insights nor event sponsors played any role in the judging or selection of winners.
