The Rushlight Awards recognise leading organisations such as ours throughout the UK and Ireland. They encourage and promote companies that have furthered environmental technology and innovation in the fields of renewable energy, clean fuels, power generation, water, waste and pollution management. The event itself has created a community whose main purpose is to assist in the development of clean technology and in the improvement of environmental standards.
“We are always delighted to get recognition for the important role that Ecodan can play in helping reduce both the emissions and running costs of UK homes, but it is especially pleasing to receive this recognition from another industry sector.” explained John Kellett, General Manager of the Heating Division, who collected the award on the night.
Air source heat pumps offer a real opportunity as an alternative to gas and oil heating and Ecodan has been specifically designed to be as ‘plug and play’ as possible, so that it can fulfill the potential as the first mass-market sustainable alternative for the UK. The system can help cut running costs by over 30% and cut CO2 emissions by 50% against even the most modern gas condensing boiler. Savings over oil, older gas boilers, LPG or direct electric systems are even greater.
