EirGrid plc shortlisted for two categories at National Procurement Awards 2025

Looking back to last year’s awards cycle, EirGrid plc has been named as a finalist in two categories at the National Procurement Awards 2025, shortlisted for Procurement Team of the Year and Best Public Sector, Semi State or Government Procurement Project of the Year.

The dual nomination recognises EirGrid's critical role in planning, managing, and developing Ireland's electricity grid for a sustainable future. As the state-owned operator responsible for securing Ireland's electricity supply, EirGrid is leading the transition to a low carbon future and future-proofing the national grid for the next generation through renewable-ready infrastructure.

EirGrid operates at the intersection of technical complexity, regulatory compliance, and long-term infrastructure investment while maintaining grid stability and security of supply. With nearly 40% of Ireland's electricity coming from renewable sources by 2020, the organisation is working toward the government's 80% renewable energy target, a transformation that requires strategic procurement capabilities across all operational functions.

The Procurement Team of the Year nomination reflects the organisation's approach to managing complex, multi-stakeholder procurement operations that support national energy policy objectives while delivering commercial and operational value.

The Best Public Sector, Semi State or Government Procurement Project of the Year shortlisting recognises EirGrid's project delivery capability in advancing critical energy infrastructure through strategic procurement processes that align with Ireland's climate action commitments.

Finalists for the National Procurement Awards 2025 represent organisations demonstrating innovation, strategic vision, and measurable impact across Ireland's procurement landscape. The awards recognise excellence in procurement transformation, sustainability leadership, and operational excellence.
