Nominations for the Solar Power Portal Awards 2017 are now open, and for 2017 we welcome back the energy efficiency and corporate sustainability programme.
First introduced in 2015, the energy efficiency and corporate sustainability programme year of the award recognises corporates that have gone above and beyond in the past year to drive change in their business, be it through the adoption of energy conservation, on-site generation, carbon footprint reduction, or simply changing employee attitudes to sustainability.
Nominations should include the company’s identity and any parties that helped them become more sustainable, how the business has benefitted from a result of their sustainability programme, and details of any future efficiency targets that have been put into place. While this award will be presented to the corporate entity first and foremost, associated parties will too be recognised.
Last year’s winner
This category was absent from last year’s ceremony, however a more specific award for energy management project of the year was won by Nottingham City Council for its work on Wollaton Hall, an Elizabethan-era country estate which houses the Nottingham Natural History Museum.
This year nominations will remain open until midnight 31 May 2017 before a three-week judging process takes place.
