2024 The 6th ESCI Best Practices Awards Program
ABOUT THE AWARDS
Launched in 2010, the "Energy Smart Communities Initiative (ESCI)" has contributed greatly to the advancement of green growth, sustainable development, long-term job creation and APEC's goal of energy intensity reduction by at least 45 percent before 2035. As the information hub of ESCI network, the Knowledge Sharing Platform (KSP) has helped disseminate and share best practices of ESCI's areas of focus in a systematic manner.
To encourage best practices, facilitate knowledge-sharing and give public recognition to individual accomplishments in the energy smart related cases within the APEC region, ESCI-KSP hosts an "ESCI Best Practices Awards Program". The first awards occurred in 2013.
Following the successes of 2013, 2015, 2017, 2019 and 2022 ESCI Best Practices Awards Program, the ESCI-KSP, with the support from APEC member economies, hosts the 2024 ESCI Best Practices Awards Program, in order to continue the momentum of regional efforts in developing new methods, technologies and applications, and to offer an opportunity to encourage best practices, facilitate knowledge-sharing and give public recognition to accomplishments in energy smart related cases within the APEC region.
