Print this article | Send to Colleague
Each year, APPA presents two prestigious awards that recognize outstanding utilities that embody the spirit of the Demonstration of Energy & Efficiency Developments (DEED) program. These awards are an opportunity to impress your customers, community and industry colleagues with your utility’s accomplishments.
The two awards being given are:
Award of Continued Excellence (ACE)
The Award of Continued Excellence recognizes a DEED member utility that has demonstrated continued commitment to the DEED program and its ideals. Nominations are evaluated on involvement in the DEED program (i.e. grants, scholarships, etc.), commitment to energy-efficiency; investigation/use of renewable resources; and support of public power. This award is presented during APPA's annual Engineering and Operations Technical Conference.
Energy Innovator Award (EIA)
The Energy Innovator Award recognizes utility programs that have demonstrated advances in the development or application of creative, energy-efficient techniques or technologies, provide better service to electric customers or projects that increase the efficiency of utility operations or resource efficiency. Judging criteria also includes transferability and takes into account project scope in relation to utility size. This award is presented during APPA's annual National Conference.
The deadline for submission for both awards is January 31, 2014.
