Honors and Distinctions
In recognition of exceptional service and technical excellence, each year CIGRE presents a variety of honours and distinctions to deserving members.
CIGRE Medal Award
Every Session year, the CIGRE Medal is granted to a maximum of two members of CIGRE, in recognition of an oustanding contribution to the development of CIGRE (either administrative or technical achievement). View list of Canadian recipients.
Fellow Membership Award
Introduced in 2014, the Fellow membership award is for active participation in the activities of the technical work of the study committees and for providing a lead technical role in the study committees. View list of Canadian recipients.
Honorary Membership Award
The highest distinction bestowed by CIGRE, the title of Honorary Member, rewards the recipient with lifetime membership.
