And the Winners Are...
E Source asked for your Visions of Efficiency, narrowed the field down to seven finalists, and now we’re excited to announce our winners!
Earlier this year, in our first-ever Visions of Efficiency Video Contest, E Source put out a call for videos highlighting the benefits of energy efficiency in an imaginative way. We were thrilled by the creativity and originality shown by the finalists. Our expert panel of judges selected our finalists based on specific criteria including how well they helped break down barriers to adopting energy-efficient products and practices. E Source members were then invited to vote for their favorite videos and their votes were used to help choose the first-, second-, and third-place winners.
Take a few minutes to watch all seven of the finalist videos and see if you’re inspired to become more energy efficient! And be sure to check back early next year to find out what the focus will be for our 2009 video contest!
