Every year, BC Hydro recognizes Power Smart business leaders who make energy efficiency and conservation a way of doing business. Power Smart Excellence Award finalists and recipients do more than save energy. They also create better working environments while improving their environmental, social and economic performance. And, they foster an energy conservation culture that will benefit all British Columbians. Find out what some of our past attendees had to say about their Awards experience in our Customer Testimonials section.
