The Responsible Care Energy Efficiency Awards program is among ACC's many initiatives to improve energy efficiency. Member companies are required to consider operational energy efficiency as well as waste minimization, reuse and recycling when developing their environmental, health, safety and security plans.
"This award recognizes companies that have made significant improvements in energy efficiency," Henriksen said. "The energy savings help reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and are an example of how chemistry is the science behind sustainability. We congratulate today's winners."
The companies receiving awards in 2020 are listed below. Some companies won multiple awards. An asterisk (*) denotes an "Exceptional Merit" award designation for at least one of the projects awarded.
ACC member companies nominate specific projects for recognition under the award program. The judging committee that determined the winners is comprised of select ACC member companies. The 2020 Responsible Care® & Sustainability Conference is being held virtually, May 4-6.
