The 2026 Abdullah Bin Hamad Al-Attiyah International Energy Awards honored Mohammed bin Nasser al-Hajri, managing director and CEO of Nebras Power, with the Lifetime Achievement Award for advancing Qatar's energy industry.

To mark a shift towards recognizing emerging leaders, the ceremony unveiled the inaugural Young Energy Leader Awards. Boyan Slat, CEO of the Ocean Cleanup, and Dr Manal al-Shafi, a Qatari academic, were awarded the International and National Young Energy Leader Awards, respectively. The Lifetime Achievement recipients were chosen through an international selection process, assessing candidates based on sustained contributions and exceptional personal achievements.
The 2026 ceremony, chaired by Dr Saud bin Abdullah al-Attiyah, the chairman of the Al-Attiyah Foundation, celebrated eight individuals for their remarkable contributions to energy and sustainable development. Dr al-Attiyah noted that the recipients embody the foundation's vision, reflecting the diverse talent in energy and sustainability.
ExxonMobil sponsored the event, which was supported by member organizations such as QatarEnergy, QNB, Shell, ConocoPhillips, Marubeni, Sasol, JTA Holding, Qatar Cool, and Qatar Free Zones Authority.
