The City Of Saint John Picks Up Two Awards For Energy Efficiency

At the 5th annual Premier's Energy Awards, the City has two winners.
 

The City's Energy Manager Samir Yammine has won the Energy Efficiency Champion Award with his work since 2011 saving the City an estimated 1.8 million dollars every year.

Yammine tells CHSJ News he began working in the city's energy department nearly 15 years ago.

He says when they started they were few programs like it so it was a bit of a struggle in the beginning.

The other winner is the new Police headquarters at Peel Plaza for new Commercial Construction.
