Utility Week celebrates the success
of the industry at 2018 awards
The winners of the Utility Week
Awards 2018 were revealed at
the greatest utilities show of the
year, at the Grosvenor House
Hotel, Park Lane, in London on
Monday (10 December).
Recognising excellence
across the industry, a total of
15 awards were handed out to
individuals and organisations,
who have demonstrated excel-
lence and achieved outstanding
performance in the past year.
The industry took a moment
to remember and raise a glass to
the late chief executive of West-
ern Power Distribution, Robert
Symons, who was recognised as
this year's Industry Achiever.
Tributes were paid to
Symons, who died last month
following a battle with cancer.
Utility Week's acting editor
Suzanne Heneghan described
him as "an individual who made
a lifetime contribution that was
second to none".
More than 1,400 people
from the utility sector
attended the Greatest Showman-
themed gala dinner and awards
ceremony, which was hosted
by comedian and presenter Sue
Perkins.
Anglian Water (pictured
above) scooped the coveted
Utility of the Year Award, which
is always a hard-fought category.
Utility Week would like
to thank: the event's main
sponsors Capgemini, CGI and
Microso; premium partner
Enzen; and sponsors KPMG,
Gemserv, Anglian Water, Calvin
Capital, Northern PowerGrid,
Ordnance Survey, Lowri Beck
and CloudKB.
Lastly we would like to give a
warm thank you to the panel of
independent experts who took
the time to judge the awards.
