Dear INFORMS Community Member,
The Energy, Natural Resources, and the Environment (ENRE) Section of INFORMS announces the Best Publication Award in the Area of Environment and Sustainability to recognize excellence among its members. The award is given annually to outstanding refereed journal articles.
In 2022, only those papers published between Jan. 1, 2019 and Dec. 31, 2021 inclusive are eligible for the award. A paper can be nominated only by a current ENRE member (2022 active membership is required), but the authors of the nominated papers may not necessarily be ENRE members. Self-nominations are welcome as long as at least one of the authors is an ENRE member.
Papers that have already won an ENRE award in the past are not eligible for nomination for any award in this year. A paper can be nominated for more than one area award (see here for the other areas − Energy and Natural Resources), but it cannot receive more than one award. If the paper has been nominated for more than one area award, this must be indicated in the nomination package.
The nominators should send an email to the chair of the award committee accompanied with a package including two documents, both in pdf format, containing:
- The information on the nominator, nominee, full reference of the article, and the area of nomination (i.e., Energy, Natural Resources, or Environment and Sustainability).
- A copy of the article written in English.
The winner(s) will give a short presentation of the winning paper in the ENRE Awards Session during the 2022 INFORMS Annual Meeting. The presenter must register for the conference and will be responsible for the associated travel and registration expenses. The award includes an official certificate from INFORMS.
