Vayu Powers 2016 Renewable Awards

Newly launched on the Northern Ireland energy market, Vayu Energy are advocating their commitment to NI’s renewables industry by supporting the 8th Annual Action Renewables Awards for a second year. The event will take place at Titanic Belfast on Thursday 31st March 2016, and Vayu will sponsor new category, ‘Best Energy Saving Large Organisation’ at this year’s awards luncheon. This addition of this innovative accolade emphasises the development of renewable energy’s importance for NI businesses, organisations, and community groups. 

“We are delighted to have launched in Northern Ireland and to sponsor the Action Renewables Awards for the second year running, helping to highlight the wide range of expertise and innovation that exists across Northern Ireland’s renewables industry” said Mary Rossiter, Vayu Energy.  “The impressive calibre of last year’s entries and the overwhelmingly positive response to the awards clearly demonstrates the importance of renewables to local businesses. As a supplier of 100% green electricity, this is something we’re seeing on the ground first hand, which is very encouraging. We would encourage as many businesses as possible to enter this year and help us to celebrate the very best in renewables.”

These excellence awards are recognised as the flagship awards of the renewables sector in Northern Ireland. Ciaran McConville, Business Development and Marketing Assistant, Action Renewables thanked Vayu for their support in crediting the sustainable energy efforts of large local organisations: “Vayu Energy is one of Ireland’s leaders in Renewables so we are thrilled to have them involved in the event again with the sponsoring of this new category and we bid welcome to their recent move into the NI energy.” 

The awards initiative has grown from strength to strength each year with a consistent aim of showcasing and celebrating the renewable energy sector. Ciaran McConville went on to describe what we can expect at this year’s event: “We’re delighted to welcome back event host Jamie Delargy and our esteemed panel of judges for 2016, which includes industry experts Carol Forster, Operations Manager, NIEL; Jim Kitchen, Director, Sustainable NI; Dr Robin Curry, Queen’s University Belfast’s School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering; and Andy McCrea, Renewable Energy Consultant.  The high calibre of industry figures who attend the annual event teamed with the stunning modern venue of Titanic Belfast will help to make this year’s event one to remember.”

The deadline for entry to the 2016 Action Renewables Awards is 5pm Monday 15th February 2016. Winners will be announced at the flagship industry awards event held at Titanic Belfast in advance of a gourmet lunch and afternoon networking event on Thursday 31st March.
