The LowCVP Awards winners will be assessed by a panel of expert judges drawn from the LowCVP's wide range of stakeholder organisations. Awards are for contribution to the low carbon road transport agenda since January 2014.

Andy Eastlake, the LowCVP’s managing director, said: “The UK’s low carbon automotive sector is now one of the most vibrant parts of the British economy, contributing to jobs, exports and growth. The LowCVP Low Carbon Champions Awards are the opportunity to celebrate this, and the wider range of contributions from fuels and energy, innovations and initiatives, and even research and publications, all of which deserve recognition for the low carbon success story. We look forward to receiving the nominations.”
