AE Smith at Green Cities 09 Conference |

| The 2009 Green Cities conference has provided the perfect launching pad for AE Smith’s new business unit that’s designed to help building owners improve their building’s efficiencies. Emerald Sustainable Performance (EmeraldESP) was the focus of AE Smith’s sponsorship at the two day conference – where over 700 delegates and special guests including Federal Environment Minister, Peter Garrett interacted with AE Smith’s Business Centre. AE Smith made a splash with their new brand look and EmeraldESP energy services business – with “taking the stress out of being green” the company’s theme for the Green Cities event. “We wanted to highlight to building industry professionals that charting a course for improving environmental performance for buildings is not difficult,” comments AE Smith’s EmeraldESP General Manager, Doug Binns. |

| Feedback from delegates attending the conference highlighted how many building managers and property professionals are still concerned about how to translate their commitment to being efficient with energy and water management of their property assets into reality – particularly in this economic climate. “Many people are now concerned that creating new energy efficiencies would cost too much – but there’s a lot that can be achieved by working within existing operating budgets and not committing significant capital,” adds Doug Binns. In line with keeping the stress out of being green, AE Smith’s new energy services business has established simple benchmarking processes to monitor energy use and easy to follow road maps for achieving NABERS star ratings that can be rolled out at your own pace. “Green Cities also provided a great chance to showcase to the industry how EmeraldESP can help reduce costs and have other business benefits – important in the current business environment.” For more information contact Doug Binns on +61 (0)488 698 160. |
