Energy Efficient Product of the Year HVAC&R - Energy Awards 2020
In no more than 1,000 words, please tell the judges why your entry should win.
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.’
HVAC&R is a significant user of energy in any building, so this category recognises the cream of energy efficient heating, air conditioning, ventilation or refrigeration technology. Energy reduction can mean either more efficient performance or better controlling it more effectively. Estimate the demand for this type of product and its potential energy savings across the UK. Credit will be given for solid data – independent where possible - to back up efficiency claims.
