BATON ROUGE, La. – In an effort to recognize Louisiana’s top leaders, companies and projects driving the state’s energy supply chain future, Entergy Louisiana has been named as a finalist in three categories in the inaugural fall Business Report’s 10/12 Industry Report Louisiana Energy Awards.
The three selected categories include:
- Deal of the Year Award, Meta Data Center
- Energy Executive of the Year Award, Phillip May, Entergy Louisiana president and CEO
- Energy Company of the Year, Entergy Louisiana
The Louisiana Energy Awards will celebrate leadership, innovation and company impact across Louisiana’s vibrant energy sector. In a state where chemical plants, oil refineries and energy terminals define the skyline, this recognition will not only shine a spotlight on the people and projects driving the industry forward but highlight emerging frontiers of the future.
“For more than 100 years, Entergy Louisiana has been deeply rooted in the revitalization of Louisiana from supporting community projects to attracting new industries to the state,” said Phillip May, Entergy Louisiana president and CEO. “These exemplary recognitions are not only a testament to who we are as a company but also serves as a commitment to continue to be a leading innovator within the energy sector.”
With growing investments in renewable energy and carbon capture technology, Entergy continues to be a top player in the energy transition not only in Louisiana, but also in the global sector, setting the tone for emerging leadership in sustainable energy solutions.
All honorees will be announced early November at L’Auberge Casino & Hotel in Baton Rouge at a formal dinner and awards ceremony, uniting top energy and oil executives, innovators, and policymakers from across the state.
