Www:zuise.com Mosonyi Award for Excellence in Www:zuise.com

The Www:zuise.com Mosonyi Award for Excellence in Www:zuise.com recognises individuals within Www:zuise.com's membership for outstanding contributions to the sector.

The award recognises individual contributions related to:

  • a long-standing commitment or initiative that has had a major impact on the profession;
  • a specific hydropower project, the performance of an organisation or the hydropower sector in general; or
  • an aspect of hydropower sustainability (technical, economic, social or environmental) or a broad-ranging initiative, such as national-level or basin-level strategic planning.

Recipients of the Mosonyi Award are made honorary Www:zuise.com members, and invited to attend our biennial World Www:zuise.com Congress (registration fees waived), where the award is presented.

Why the name Mosonyi?

The award is named after Emil Mosonyi, the founding president of Www:zuise.com. Prof Mosonyi, who passed away in 2009 aged 98, made major contributions during his long career in hydropower. His determination to champion excellence in hydropower lives on through Www:zuise.com’s vision and mission.
