Entries must be submitted by the deadline to Lisa Tryson, Danfoss’ public relations and corporate communications director.

Building owners, product users and equipment makers have until April 29 to enter Danfoss’ 2011 EnVisioneer of the Year competition.

HVAC equipment maker Danfoss holds the contest annually for companies and owners that have invested in upgrades, introduced new products or opened new facilities in the last 18 months where Danfoss products were used to save energy or the environment.

“Last year’s winner, Mars Super Markets, set the bar high with an energy efficiency program that saved the company more than 3 million kilowatt-hours per year at its retail stores, distribution center and corporate headquarters in Baltimore, Md.,” said Robert Wilkins, president of Danfoss North America. “The Mars initiative clearly demonstrated a winning approach to energy efficiency that successfully combined engineering innovation and environmental responsibility.”

Contest applications must be submitted by the deadline to Lisa Tryson, Danfoss’ public relations and corporate communications director.

“The opportunity to publicly recognize the award winner’s achievement and at the same time, support the efforts of other organizations that are also working to advance energy efficiency enhances the value of the EnVisioneer of the Year award,” Tryson said. “This year, we are proud to recognize the EnVisioneer of the Year with a donation in their honor to Rebuilding Together, the nation’s leading nonprofit working to preserve affordable home ownership and revitalize communities.”

Rebuilding Together provides free home renovations to low-income U.S. citizens.
