The National Energy Efficiency Awards celebrate the achievements of individuals and their organisations in significantly reducing energy use. The Awards, sponsored by the UK Centre for Economic and Environmental Development (UK CEED), The Independent, and EDF Energy, involve the full spectrum of energy users, including large and small companies, the public sector, schools and community groups.
More than 180 entries were submitted to this year’s Awards, which culminated in a high profile ceremony at the London Aquarium. Bio-Bubble was highly commended in the Business to Business section of the Energy Efficient Products, coming second only to Dyson. The company’s innovative process to apply “Advanced-Aeration” technology to Wastewater Treatment has been successfully demonstrated to dramatically improve energy efficiencies.
Bio-Bubble demonstrates the following energy savings:
-
Average power reduction 26%
-
Maximum power reduction 42%
-

-
Maximum carbon emission reduction 43%
The award for Energy Efficient Products focuses on products like Bio-Bubble that have made a significant contribution to reductions in energy usage. The judges were looking for products which not only demonstrated energy savings, but that were also replicable and inspiring, and that took into consideration their wider environmental impacts. Peter Hofman of EDF Energy described the winners of this year’s awards as “those that stand out and have gone the extra mile”. This latest acclamation for Bio-Bubble follows on from recent success as the winner of the Environmental Innovation and Technology Award at the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Sustainable Business Awards 2007.

“This design and build project is an outstanding success in working on a restricted site and resulting in an exceptionally successful sewage works built to a very high standard. Close to a housing development it is virtually odourless and very quiet without resource to covering all the tanks. It is so efficient it produces only one tenth of the sludge from traditional processes. Its clean water going into the Bann is about ten times cleaner than required by the consent. This project has been carried out within budget, on time.”
