We\’re so proud that our two Principal Consultants, James Spears and Grace Foo have won their respective nomination categories at the 2020 AIRAH Awards held today.
Grace Foo won the hotly contended Future Leader award for her pivotal role in government policy development work, such as the 2019 Section J revision, expansion of NABERS to other sectors, impact of changing climate on building energy and design, and future-proofing buildings for integration of distributed energy resources.
James Spears won the W.R. Ahern Award, which recognises the best technical paper published in Ecolibrium (the official journal of AIRAH). James’ paper “Improving pump efficiency – A combination of regulation and good design” was published in the December 2019 edition. The paper explored the various factors that impact the overall efficiency of a pumping system and presented an empirical model to help predict the best achievable efficiency for a given pressure and flow.
