October 12, 2005—The Alliance to Save Energy’s 2005 Stars of Energy Efficiency are the world’s third-busiest airport, a small yet innovative electric utility, and a consortium of steel companies dedicated to vehicle energy efficiency.
The 2005 winner of the Alliance’s Charles H. Percy Award for Public Service, named for the Alliance’s founder, is California Public Utilities Commission President Michael Peevey, a nationally recognized leader in energy efficiency and environmental improvement who has used his position to ensure that efficiency is a cornerstone of state policy in California, says the Alliance.
Alliance Chairman Sen. Byron Dorgan (D-N.D.) has selected BP America President Ross Pillari and former California Energy Commission Chairman William Keese, who served as co-chairs of the Alliance’s “Vision 2010” Policy Committee, to receive the Chairman’s Award. These honorees and Dallas/Ft. Worth (DFW) International Airport, Burlington (Vt.) Electric Department, and ULSAB-Advanced Vehicle Concepts (ULSAB-AVC), will be honored at an October 20 black-tie gala and fundraising dinner at Washington, D.C.’s National Building Museum.
