Anglian Water wins
Utility of the Year
The winners of the Utility Week Awards
2021 were finally revealed on 21 March
for the rescheduled ceremony at London's
Grosvenor House Hotel.
A
nglian Water took home the flagship
award of Utility of the Year as well as
sharing the Team of the Year award
with Kier and Clancy.
The Industry Champion award was given
posthumously to Audrey Gallacher OBE, the
deputy chief executive of Energy UK who
passed away in January.
Utility Week editor James Wallin said: "It
was with a heavy heart that we postponed
the awards in December but it was fantastic
to finally be able to reunite the industry in
person to celebrate so many achievements.
"The utilities sector faced a barrage of
challenges in 2021 but also highlighted its
adaptability and the passion to find innova-
tive solutions to potential barriers. The many
submissions we received showcased best
practice in everything from engaging com-
munities, to forging ever-closer partnerships
with supply chains and the all-important
progress on net zero.
"A huge congratulations to our winners
and a heartfelt thank you to all those who
took the time to enter. We look forward to
receiving your submissions for the Utility
Week Awards 2022."
