Outstanding Engineer Award

The Outstanding Engineer Award program allows each PES Chapter the opportunity to recognize the outstanding contribution of a local engineer to the power engineering profession.

  • Outstanding technical contributions to the power engineering profession.
  • Outstanding professional and leadership contributions to the power engineering profession
  • Significant contributions to the local community representing the power engineering profession.
  • Outstanding contributions in the area of power engineering education.
