IREC Announces its Annual Search for Innovative Renewable Energy Projects and Programs

The Interstate Renewable Energy Council invites state and local governments, K-12 schools, non-profit organizations, and community groups to submit entries in its 13th Annual Innovation Awards Competition recognizing efforts to promote and accelerate the adoption of renewable energy technologies. Eligible programs or activities include education, energy policy, legislation, regulatory actions, demonstration projects, research and development, or financial incentives. Projects must have been completed during 2007.

The awards will be made in conjunction with the IREC Annual Meeting to be held in San Diego, California on October 13th, 2008. Winners will be notified prior to the event.

A Review Committee appointed by IREC's Executive Committee will judge the entries. Award recipients will be recognized during IREC's annual meeting and will receive a commemorative plaque recognizing their achievement. The winning entries will also be posted on the IREC website, featured in a national press release and listed in a brochure to be distributed to all attendees at the annual meeting.

ALL ENTRIES ARE DUE BY JULY 30, 2008
