READING, England, November 18 /PRNewswire/ -- Semplice Energy Limited, leading CleanTech energy solutions provider, part of British Gas Business, a Centrica company, has been awarded the Green Apple Award for Environmental Best Practice within the 'Pollution/Emissions Reduction' category.

The award recognised Semplice Energy Eco|Solutions for their commercially viable energy savings and clean energy generation. Eco|Solutions look at the total cost of ownership of the clean energy solution rather than just the purchase cost to help the customer understand the true value of their investment. Although each technology enjoys its own benefits, Semplice seek to offer a balanced solution of complementary technologies that are both kind to the customer's pocket and the environment. Customers such as Thatcham Research Centre, McDonalds and Mothercare have benefited from this holistic approach with both carbon and fiscal savings.

Companies are becoming increasingly aware about the impact their business has on the environment and as they seek to reduce both carbon emissions and energy costs, they will want to use their energy more efficiently. Industry Eco|Solutions were developed to address this problem for all businesses across all sectors, said Jeff Whittingham, Director of Energy Services, British Gas Business.

James Bessell collected the award on behalf of Semplice Energy, on the 17th November, at the House of Commons, alongside the other successful entrants. Having attracted over 500 nominations, the Green Apple Awards are now in their sixteenth year and are organised by The Green Organisation - an independent, not-for-profit environmental group.
