 INTRODUCTION

With a view to encouraging the design of energy efficient architecture and building services systems and to draw attention to buildings which contribute significantly to energy efficiency in Hong Kong, nominations are invited for buildings to compete for the Energy Efficient Building Award 1994.

The EEBA 1994 is organised by the Energy Efficiency Advisory Committee chaired by the Secretary of Planning, Environment and Lands and sponsored by China Light & Power Co Ltd and Hong Kong Electric Co Ltd.  The purpose of the EEBA is to give public recognition to outstanding examples of energy efficient buildings.  It is hoped that the awards will foster appreciation for local buildings which have achieved energy efficiency as well as general architectural excellence that deserve wider public notice, irrespective of their size and nature.

AWARDS

The buildings deserving an award will receive a plaque that could be affixed to the chosen building.  Certificate will be presented to the members of the project team contributing to the energy efficiency features of the building, the building owner, the building contractor, the building services contractors and other concerned parties.

It is intended that one award will be made at the discretion of the Jury.  However, under exceptional circumstances, the jury may decide to award more awards depending on the merits of the entries.
