Commercial Building Energy Project of the Year

Bear in mind that this entry is the main way to convince judges, who will not know the detail as intimately as you do, so it is important to set out a structured ‘pitch’, with evidence to back up any claims. The two main criticisms in judges’ feedback from past awards is ‘Did not provide enough a strong enough argument as to why they should win’ and ‘No data or evidence to back up claims.’

This category looks for the year’s best energy-saving projects in the competitive arena of commercial building (including retail). It covers both new build and refurbishment/retrofit. In a sector where occupant comfort is a key consideration, the judges are looking for demonstrable energy and carbon savings, backed up by data, with particular consideration for innovation, repeatability, and other wider environmental impacts.
