It is given in recognition of outstanding performance in terms of energy efficiency, renewable energy and resource conservation worldwide. Being presented this award is a very high recognition, for ENERGY GLOBE is an internationally recognized trade mark for sustainability.

The national Energy Globe Award China 2015 was awarded to the project “Qunlistormwater park: A green sponge for a water-resilient city" of College of Architecture and Landscape, Peking University. Shortly summarized, the project focuses on a  storm water park created in the middle of the new town which acts as a green sponge that cleanses and stores urban storm water, recharges the aquifer and protects native habitats. As part of this year’s World Environment Day the project was also presented by Energy Globe as part of a global online campaign (www.energyglobe.info) to a wide audience. The campaign ran under the patronage of UNESCO and in cooperation with UNEP and received great recognition and a large echo.

"To be honored with this award is a great recognition of our work for a better environment and motivates us to continue our endeavors in the future", said Professor Kongjian Yu, National Energy Globe Winner .From now on projects can be again submitted for the Energy Globe Award 2016.
