Recognised for his technical expertise and measurable impact on Ireland's energy transition, Luke Deasy of Copper Coast Renewables was awarded the Best Energy Manager title at the Business Energy Achievement Awards 2025, distinguished for his leadership ambition and demonstrable contribution through a portfolio of major renewable energy projects.

Operating at the forefront of Ireland's shift toward cleaner power systems, Deasy delivered quantifiable results across 2024, managing complex projects that advanced grid-scale renewable integration and demonstrated what disciplined energy management can achieve at a practical level. His work aligned rigorously with the category criteria, reflecting both the technical depth and strategic clarity that the Best Energy Manager award demands.

Judges highlighted the breadth and measurability of his contribution. "The judges recognised Luke for his ambition, leadership, and technical expertise, which have delivered outstanding results in advancing the energy transition. His work on major projects exemplifies real impact in 2024. With clear achievements in energy management, quantified and aligned to the category criteria, his contribution stands out as both significant and measurable," the panel said.

Deasy's award reflects the evolving standards of the Business Energy Achievement Awards, where individual performance is assessed not by intent alone, but by evidence-led outcomes that advance Ireland's low-carbon agenda at scale.
