The AMPS (Association of Manufacturers and Suppliers of Power Generating Systems) Awards for Excellence will return this year, and entries are now invited to showcase the outstanding achievements within the power systems industry. These awards represent the highest standards of dedication, innovation, and expertise our members bring to the sector.
Reflecting on last year’s success
David Oates, AMPS Director General, reflected on the success of last year’s event: "Last year's AMPS Awards were a resounding success, with a record number of entries showcasing the exceptional work being done across our industry. Building on that momentum, we’ve updated the Apprentice of the Year category to the Apprenticeship Programme of the Year, recognising organisations committed to developing the next generation of talent. I encourage all members to participate—whether by entering themselves or nominating others. There’s an opportunity for every achievement to be recognised."
