New addition to SAEE awards in 2012
The SAEE recognizes that we cannot exist without using energy, but promotes the efficient use of energy to ensure a sustainable supply and induced economic growth through lowered energy use – therefore, in 2012 we launch the SAEE Energy Patron Award.
If your organization has ensured the continuous efficient use of energy resources through incorporating a holistic approach within your business model, or applied strategies, policies, created awareness, revised staff structures, ensured staff training, utilized incentives, implemented energy management, or even installed technologies, reduced your environmental impact and reliance on the grid, or any other innovative means of investing in the energy efficiency of your operations – this award is for you.
The SAEE is in its 10th year of existence providing credible recognition for Energy Patrons in the Southern African region. Enter your organization by contacting Danielle Badenhorst on (018) 293 1499 or email info@saee.org.za.
