EnTranCe Award: a prize for pioneers in the energy transition
Pioneering solutions are needed to make the transition the spur of the moment. We therefore help those who make it happen. The EnTranCe Award underlines that courage and innovation are necessary and wants to reward that. Individuals, organisations and companies from all over the Netherlands can win the EnTranCe Award.

The EnTranCe Award is an incentive prize for those who move the transition forward by inventing, implementing, or making innovative solutions big. This is what EnTranCe is all about.
Individuals, organisations and companies that make significant inventions or realise innovations to this end - and scale them up and implement them nationally and internationally - are eligible for this award. Also decisive for a nomination is whether EnTranCe and its partners can contribute to the further development and scaling up of the invention or innovation.
The EnTranCe Award affirms the EnTranCe innovation culture - a culture of yes-doers, free-thinkers, mavericks, off-the-beaten-pathers and socially motivated people, who want to rely on knowledge and facts to achieve transition goals. It recognises the hard work and perseverance of individuals, organisations and companies, who are committed to the energy transition.
For more information, criteria and application, see the EnTranCe Award website (Dutch).
