Judging for the 2006 Global Energy Awards relies on the expertise of an independent panel of international energy experts, including energy ministers, national regulators, past and present heads of major energy companies, and leading academics and legislators. The panel evaluated more than 200 entrants and selected finalists in 16 categories based on criteria specific to each category. Panel judges will select the Energy Company of the Year from this overall list of finalists.
