After the application deadline, an internal jury of EnBW employees will select up to 10 projects for the final vote.
The finalists will be presented on the EnBW campaign website. The winners will be determined by the supporters, friends, and fans of the individual projects, who will cast their votes online. The winners of the competition are the three projects that receive the most votes in their respective categories. The 2026 online voting will take place here on this page from May 4 to May 11.
The implementation of the four winning projects is planned for July 2026.
In addition to the three projects that emerge as winners from the online voting, a fourth project will be selected by an internal EnBW jury. This means that there will be a total of four winners and four projects will be implemented.
We will notify the four winners personally. We will also announce the winners on the campaign website.
