InnoEnergy Photo contest
We are delighted to announce the launch of our very first InnoEnergy photography contest.
The importance and impact of renewable energy can be expressed not only through technical innovation but also through images that reflect and encourage a productive relationship between human ingenuity and the natural world.
In an age of technological advancement, we still seek to express our emotions, our friendships and our experiences through photographs. Using the art inherent in them, their popularity and accessibility to almost everyone, we hope with this competition to engage citizens to think, feel and act on imperative energy questions, both in action at the societal level and as individuals.
Citizen awareness and participation in the integration of sustainable energy into our daily lives is imperative. A photograph, be it raising awareness or celebrating innovation, canhelp move us towards our united goal: the future vision of a hi-tech, sustainable and beautiful planet that offers a decent quality of life to everyone.
General information
InnoEnergy has divided the photo contest into two categories: Professional and CommUnity. Images should address one of the following topic areas:
- Energy, the future is now (Technical/scientific).
- Energy in everyday life (Social impact).
Professional Photo Contest
A select group of outstanding professional photographers are being invited to participate, with the overall winner receiving a prize of 6000 euros. If you have been sent an invitation and wish to take part, please register following the instructions included in your email.
CommUnity Photo Contest
With most of us carrying sophisticated cameras on our phones, even the most amateur of photographers can today produce an image that captures a scene or expresses an idea that can inspire people. With this in mind, we invite all members of our InnoEnergy CommUnity to take part in our competition in a category of their own, the winning image receiving a prize of 1500 euros. Those wishing to participate, please register through the InnoEnergy CommUnity platform.
