To be in with a chance of winning the £2,000 prize, all you need to do is submit your innovative idea or concept that could accelerate the race to achieve net zero. A shortlist of finalists will be invited to attend the Gala Awards Dinner in London on 13 June 2024 at the Sheraton Grand Hotel London.
