These companies are shining examples of corporate efforts that add business value in a wide range of areas including efficiency, renewable energy, waste reduction, heat capture, packaging, agriculture, and building retrofits.
These products and projects were assessed by a highly respected (and critical) judging panel, led by Peter Bussey, research analyst with LNS Research. The Awards set an extremely high bar to qualify for an award. Selections were based on the products’ capability, efficiency, ease-of-use, functionality, features, and benefits. Most importantly, assessments are done with a focus on performance.

Here are comments from the judges about some of the entrants:
Aries Clean Energy: "This could be a wonderful model for the rest of the world. They are using systems thinking to reduce waste, produce renewable energy, capture heat that normally would be wasted, and also producing biochar, which has great agricultural benefits."
EcoEnergy: "This project delivered significant business value for Home Depot. It goes beyond traditional energy management by taking an enterprise view of managing the operational performance of electromechanical assets across the network."
Dow: "The project addresses a problem we have today: what to do with certain types of plastic packaging materials that can’t be recycled like other types of plastic. The initiative is impressive and well-executed."
Schneider Electric: "The application of building analytics demonstrates the opportunity to retrofit historical buildings with state-of-the-art systems that can deliver energy and financial results. The experience in one of the largest indoor aquariums in the world could be replicated by peers."
