Launch of the 2025 NIPA Awards

October 14, 2025

On behalf of the NIPA Board, and as part of our continued drive to identify and showcase best practice in the consenting and delivery of nationally significant infrastructure projects (NSIPs), I am delighted to launch our 2025 Awards.

 

Once again there are two Awards:

The National Infrastructure Planning Association Award for “Best Project”; and 

The National Infrastructure Planning Association Early Years Practitioner (EYP) Award.

 

Submissions for “Best Project” are for NSIPs consented between 01 October 2024 and 30 September 2025 inclusive, using the NIPA Best Project 2025 Award submission form and following the NIPA Best Project 2025 Award submission guidance, should be sent to info@nipa-uk.org by 6.00pm on Wednesday 29 October 2025.

Submissions for the EYP Award, using the NIPA EYP Award 2025 submission form and following the NIPA EYP Award 2025 submission guidance, should also be sent to info@nipa-uk.org by 6.00pm on Wednesday 29 October 2025.

A panel of independent judges will meet to consider submissions, and the winners of the 2025 Awards will be announced at NIPA’s Annual Dinner on Thursday 20 November 2025.

We look forward to receiving your entries.

Should you have any queries please contact info@nipa-uk.org

With best wishes (and the best of luck!)
