The best green energy projects in Wales were recognised last week at the 2015 Wales Green Energy Awards, organised by RenewableUK Cymru.
David Clubb, Director of RenewableUK Cymru, said: “We are just a few weeks away from COP21 in Paris and today was an opportunity to remind ourselves of the importance of the green energy sector, not just to the people, communities and businesses of Wales, but to the world. Many Welsh companies are playing a part in the global movement for a better future and the Wales Green Energy Awards allow us to celebrate the best practice, innovation and determination displayed by all the finalists.”
