The Southern African Energy Efficiency Confederation (SAEEC) Awards Programme annually recognises outstanding accomplishments of individuals and companies in the energy industry. Through our Awards Programme, SAEEC shines the light on the important work that is being done in energy by individuals, organisations, government, agencies, and corporations.
The Awards are a token of recognition for the commitment to the profession; desire to further the Confederation’s goal of advancing the continuous improvement of Energy management in contributing to sustainable energy consumption, inclusive economic growth and climate change mitigation. These prestigious Awards are presented at the Annual SAEEC Banquet and Awards Ceremony to be held at Farm Inn, Silverlakes, Pretoria on 14 November 2019.
Each award is allocated specific judging criteria and many awards share similar criteria. In the interests of clarity, these criteria are defined in detail here. These are the guidelines the SAEEC’s Technical Committee will refer to when they make their decisions.
Nominations close: Tuesday, 1 October 2019.
