Infrastructure engineering software company Bentley Systems was recognised across multiple categories at Environment Analyst’s 2025 Sustainability Delivery Awards, held earlier this month in Chicago, US.
Bentley received top honours — the Water Project of the Year and Digital Innovation Award — and was commended in a third, highlighting the company’s measurable progress toward meeting global infrastructure sustainability objectives.
As the winner for the Water Project of the Year, Bentley and SABESP were recognised for the ‘Integra 4.0 Cultural Transformation Through Digitalisation’ project, which is a landmark initiative accelerating sustainable water infrastructure modernisation in Brazil through digital twin technology.
For the Digital Innovation Award, Bentley’s Carbon Analysis capabilities in iTwin experience were honoured for their ability to enable infrastructure engineers to simplify and streamline data collection and carbon reporting, visualise and quantify embodied carbon, and explore alternatives for better designs, saving time and reducing risk on major infrastructure projects.
Bentley, alongside Exo, were also commended for the ‘Evergy Power Transmission Structure Stabilisation’ project, an effort that leveraged digital modelling and predictive analytics to enhance energy grid resilience in the Energy Project of the Year category.
These recognitions underscore Bentley’s commitment and leadership position to advancing sustainability through digital engineering solutions that enable more resilient, efficient, and low-carbon infrastructure.
The water and energy projects were previously honoured at Bentley’s 2024 Year in Infrastructure conference: the SABESP Integra 4.0 programme was recognised as a Going Digital Award winner in the water and wastewater category by a panel of independent jurors, while the Exo Evergy Power Transmission Structure Stabilisation programme received Bentley Founders Honours.
“At Bentley, our sustainability vision reflects the urgent need to future-proof global infrastructure,” said Chris Bradshaw, chief sustainability and education officer at Bentley Systems.
“Digital twins are essential for sustainable development, helping users optimally balance environmental, social, and economic outcomes. We are proud to be recognised across several categories in the 2025 Sustainability Delivery Awards and remain committed to delivering solutions that drive real progress toward climate and resilience goals.”
