The EBie Awards™ are a juried competition for people working in Existing Buildings (hence the EBies) who have made great strides in improving their environmental performance but who may otherwise go unheralded. Their work is likely to have been done on a shoestring budget and needed great tenacity and conviction.
Who are these unsung heroes? The EBies™ will recognize significant and measurable environmental performance improvements in existing buildings among building owners and operators, engineers, consultants, retro-commissioning agents, lighting designers, landscape architects, and tenant groups. Be sure to review the complete Award list and EBie rules.
The EBie Awards will be given to both commercial and residential projects, with a special award for work in the public sector.
The EBies were created by Urban Green Council, USGBC New York, but are open to projects in the continental United States.
"Nearly 90% of the buildings that will support our communities in 2030 are already standing; in order to make an impact on our energy usage profile we need to focus on existing buildings. The EBies are a perfect way to acknowledge the successes by practitioners in the field who are leading the way to a more energy-efficient future."
