Environmental leader announces its 2014 Product & Project Award winners with Urjanet’s Big Energy Data Platform as a Top Product of the Year.
ATLANTA — March 26, 2014 — Urjanet – the world’s first provider of automated Big Energy Data – today announced that their cloud-based Big Energy Platform received Top Product of the Year in the Environmental Leader Product & Project Awards. Urjanet’s unique data platform was considered to be an innovative and unique product due to its ability to integrate with thousand of data sources, including 800+ utilities in North America, to provide timely, high quality energy data.
The Environmental Leader Product & Project Awards is a program recognizing excellence in products and services that provide companies with energy and environmental benefits, or in projects implemented by companies that improved environmental or energy management and increased the bottom line.
“We’re thankful for our loyal customers, amazing partners and passionate team members who have made it possible for us to win this great award,” said Urjanet CEO Sanjoy Malik. “Acquiring accurate, complete and timely data is the fist step toward understanding energy usage and reducing energy cost and carbon emissions, but it’s a challenge that’s plagued the energy management industry for decades. We’re honored to have the opportunity to make a difference by automating the delivery of the data organizations rely on to make smarter, more profitable and eco-friendly energy decisions.”
One judge said of Urjanet’s platform: “The more that the collection and delivery of utility data can be automated, the greater the accuracy, timeliness and usefulness of the data. By including water data Urjanet helps support wider sustainability metrics. And, with greater climate unpredictability in the future, the ability to integrate weather and provide information becomes more critical.”
With today’s crowded playing field, energy and sustainability professionals have a notoriously difficult time knowing what products to choose to help their companies increase energy, environmental and sustainability performance. The Environmental Leader Product & Project Awards give companies a solid base of products, vetted by experts, from which to choose.
“The caliber of the entries this year was even more impressive than last year, and showed the excitement and innovation taking place in the industry today,” said Paul Nastu, publisher of Environmental Leader. “There was tough competition for those that entered, and the products that were awarded Top Product or Project of the Year are those that the judges say have viable attributes that set them apart from others in the field.”
