The Shannon Airport Group has secured shortlistings in two categories at the 2026 Green Awards. The group received recognition in the Green Public Sector Organisation of the Year and Green Large Organisation of the Year sections. This achievement arrives amid a record entry total exceeding 300 for the awards, which serve as a key platform for sustainability excellence in Ireland.
The shortlistings build on the group’s attainment of Level Three Airport Carbon Accreditation and its success in the Biodiversity and Environment category at last year’s Chambers Ireland Awards. During 2025, the Shannon Airport Group also gained nominations for the Chambers Ireland Outstanding Achievement in Sustainable Business Impact Award and the Biodiversity Project of the Year at Ireland’s Climate Change Leadership Awards. Initiatives across the period focused on carbon emission reductions, biodiversity protection, renewable energy investments, and circular economy integration.
Sinead Murphy shared “We’re delighted to be shortlisted for two Green Awards this year” as Head of Sustainability at The Shannon Airport Group. Sinead Murphy shared “Over the past 12 months, we’ve advanced a range of initiatives to reduce carbon emissions, protect and enhance biodiversity, invest in renewable energy infrastructure and integrate circular economy principles, and it’s great to have this positive momentum continue into 2026. Embedding sustainability across all our operations throughout the Group is a real team effort, and I’d like to thank everyone who contributes to this work every day We’re in great company among the other nominees in both categories and we look forward to the awards ceremony later this month.”
