“Innovative energy solutions are an important part of our plan to rebuild New Brunswick’s economy and strengthen our environment,” said Alward. “Individuals, businesses and communities are investing locally in energy efficiency projects, and are not only enjoying lower energy costs, but are decreasing our impact on the environment by lowering greenhouse gas emissions. These are stories worth celebrating.”
The public and the business community are encouraged to nominate New Brunswick individuals, companies, organizations or communities for one or more of the following awards:
• Energy efficiency champion: commercial sector
• Energy efficiency champion: industrial sector
• Energy efficiency champion: small and medium industrial sector
• Energy efficiency champion: residential sector

A description of each award, along with information about the nomination process, is on Efficiency NB’s website.
