Odds lengthen on Chancellor to win Renewables Champion of the Year
Nominations for British Renewable Energy Awards extended until midnight this Sunday.
The REA has expressed disappointment that George Osborne’s Budget Statement yesterday made no mention of renewable energy, despite it being one of the few sectors of the UK economy with genuine jobs and growth potential right now.
With the Chancellor out of the running, now is the perfect time to get online and nominate a client, colleague, company or community for a 2013 REA Award.
Renewable energy is a hotbed of growth and innovation, and telling the industry’s success stories is vital to raising broader public awareness of, and support for, the expansion of renewable energy in the UK. Our Awards recognise both the renewables industry itself, but also mainstream businesses and organisations which are successfully integrating renewables into their operations.
The REA will soon reveal the final line-up for the Judging Panel, which includes leading voices from business, academia and the media.
