Useful advice

What do you need to do to enter the awards?

First, please read through the category list and decide which categories you wish to enter. Remember, you can enter as many categories as you wish, and for each entry received a tree will be planted in the UK. 

Next, assemble the information you need to make your entry. There may be subtle differences between what you may need to present for each category, so please make sure you prepare to draft your submission with the specific category in mind, re-tuning the words if you need to enter the same entry in another category. This is especially important for the 100-word summary you provide for each entry.

Then, you will need to write your submission. There is a limit on the number of words in any one submission. While 1,500 words seems a lengthy essay, a complex submission will quickly chew through that number. But be aware, the judges will mark down over-length submissions, so please watch the word count. Similarly, the judges will vote higher any paper that is concisely written with no unnecessary hyperbole or self-promotion. You can supply additional information to support your submission (see below).

Please pay particular attention to any specific criteria for the category you wish to enter, though we have avoided being overly prescriptive about criteria in this first year of the Awards. The judges will appreciate your extra effort, even if it is simply to provide an introductory sentence or two as evidence that you have addressed the category’s criteria. 

 

Will you need to provide additional support material?

Electric vehicles are good to illustrate and printed material, marketing material, branded items, photographs and video can all be used to great effect in helping the judges to understand the case you are making. Please think about how you can support your entry, bearing in mind that any picture or branded material will help to make the Awards presentation more visually interesting.

At the very least, even if you have nothing else to show, please submit a high resolution (300 dpi at A4 size) file of your company’s logo and an electronic version of a photograph that best illustrates your entry.

 

How should you submit the information? 

This section of the Useful Advice page is being rewritten to give better guidance on how to enter the E-Mobility Vehicle Awards. The revised information should be uploaded by November 30 2026. Please look out for updates.

 

Will the information you provide be kept safe and confidential?

All entries are stored safely in a secure environment, accessed only by the Awards’ organising team. The judges each have to sign a confidentiality/non-disclosure letter in advance of the judging and the Awards’ organisers undertake to keep securely any information marked as “not for publication”.

 

Eligibility

Except where indicated, submissions should relate to the period December 1 2025 – May 31 2027. If you have entered the E-Mobility Awards before please avoid submitting the same entry again, unless you can provide evidence of substantial growth or improvements in product, service or company performance.

The organisers reserve the right to retain entries for subsequent publication, both on- and offline in ways that enhance the standing of entrants, supporting partners and the E-Mobility Vehicle Awards themselves. Descriptions of submissions from winners and runners-up will be published in connection with the Awards. Entrants may mark certain sensitive parts of their entry ‘not for publication’ (such as exact data, etc.), provided such restrictions are not used unreasonably.
