during a CIE luncheon
and are intended to recognize excellence in energy-related activities in
British Columbia.
The two award categories for which applicants are recognized are:
This award recognizes innovative demand-side
management or alternative energy projects which have been implemented in
British Columbia. It is distinguished from the R&D award in that it is
limited to operational projects installed in commercial applications, as
opposed to projects in the laboratory, pilot plant, or design phases of
development. Evaluative criteria for this award include demonstrated
energy savings (or energy output in the case of alternative energy
projects), the degree of innovation, British Columbia content, environmental
benefits and indirect benefits (such as productivity increases and product
quality improvement.
Past winners in this category include Carmanah Technologies Inc., Azure
Dynamics Corporation, BCIT's Photovoltaic Energy Applied Research Lab,

Projects and Elkview Coal Corporation.
Applicants for these awards should provide a description or brochure
outlining their technology or project, along with a brief explanation of how
it addresses each of the evaluative criteria listed above to Canadian
Institute of Energy (BC), 987 Devon Road, North Vancouver, BC V7R 1V8.
