More about Energy Globe Awards.

The ENERGY GLOBE AWARD is the world’s most prestigious and respected environmental award. The awards in five categories have been presented for eight years to projects that implement prudent and economical utilization of resources such as energy and water and/or efficiently employ alternative energy sources. The five project categories are Earth, Fire, Water, Air – representing the basic element of life – and Youth.

The award presentations are held within the framework of gala awards ceremonies at regional, national and international levels. Again in 2008, regional awards will be held in all nine federal provinces of Austria as well as in more than 100 nations around the world. For 2007, over 800 projects from 109 nations were submitted.

This sensational level of participation impressively underscores the worldwide esteem that the ENERGY GLOBE enjoys. The international awards ceremony takes place annually in the realm of a television gala that is broadcast worldwide to 3 billion households. Venues have included Japan (Expo 2005), Canada (Globe Fair 2006), and, as the highlight of this private Austrian initiative, the European Parliament (Plenary Room, Brussels). This year’s international gala will take place on 26 May 2008 at the European Parliament in Brussels.

The Energy Globe Award competition takes place each year and premiers projects from all over the world that sustainably utilize our resources or employ renewable energy forms. An international jury of experts chaired by Maneka Gandhi, a member of the Indian Parliament and the former environmental minister of India, decides the winning projects. The submitted projects demonstrate that extraordinary solutions already exist for many environmental problems, but that these are not sufficiently well-known.
