2008 Sustainable Technology Award
Illinois Sustainable Technology Award Overview
ISTC is not presenting a Sustainable Technology Award at the 2009 ceremony. Please apply for the Governor's Sustainability Award.
The Illinois Sustainable Technology Award recognizes a novel technology or process that leads to significant waste reduction, waste elimination, or environmental impact. Applicants must illustrate how innovative the technology or process is, discuss the long-term beneficial impact of the technology on the environment in Illinois, and show how it has been implemented.
The Illinois Sustainable Technology Award requires a separate application from the Governor's Pollution Prevention Award, and is judged across all categories of organizations, regardless of size. This award comes with a scholarship, provided by external sources, which goes to an Illinois resident attending a college or university.
Eligibility
All Illinois public or private organizations including businesses, trade organizations, community groups, schools, universities, governmental agencies, and service organizations are eligible.
To be considered for this award, the organization must have recently developed an innovative technology or process modification. The innovation must:
- meet the definition of pollution prevention (P2)
- be unique
- be a proven concept, demonstrated to be successful in either full scale implementation or pilot trials
