BEHIND THE AEE AWARDS
Through its Awards Program, AEE and its divisions recognize achievers in the fields we serve. Winners are formally saluted at special awards presentation ceremonies, receive distinctive AEE plaques commemorating their achievements, and are recognized in issues of AEE newsletters.
INVITATION TO SUBMIT ENTRIES
Entries are invited in any of the categories in the International, the Regional or the Chapter competitions. As many categories as desired may be entered.
GENERAL CRITERIA

The nomination of an individual should include a description of the nominee's work in the field, including short but descriptive summary(s) of specific projects or programs (s)he has worked on including innovative projects, substantiated savings, etc. Because the awards are based on installed and successful projects and programs, future plans and goals are not considered.
The nomination of a project should include a description of the type of project, equipment installed, operating results, substantiated savings (cost savings and energy savings), financial data, or special features.

HOW ENTRIES ARE PROCESSED
Entries are first screened to verify eligibility. Each entry is then individually evaluated according to official judging criteria.
Entries in the International and Regional categories are judged by an Awards Committee composed of experienced and qualified energy/environmental professionals. The Committee reserves the right to withhold awards in any category in which nominees do not meet expected levels of performance. The decision of the Committee is final.
Entries in the Chapter categories are forwarded to the appropriate chapters for their consideration. Chapter Awards are presented locally at various Chapter venues.
