THE green credentials of the M&S store at Cheshire Oaks have been shortlisted for an award.
M&S Cheshire Oaks is shortlisted for the Greenbuild Awards 2013, which recognise excellence in sustainable buildings, with a focus on projects that illustrate an understanding of the importance of building performance in use.
The winners will be announced at a celebratory dinner on May 8 in Manchester during the Greenbuild Expo 2013.
Judged by a panel of distinguished industry leaders including Kerry Mashford, chief executive of National Energy Foundation, winning a Greenbuild Award really does raise the bar for the industry, reducing the environmental impact of our buildings.
Finalists of this year’s awards will be showcased at the awards gallery, which is one of many features at Greenbuild Expo 2013.
Judge Kerry Mashford said: “Well done to the finalists.
“While there is a growing body of evidence of the factors that contribute to the energy performance of buildings, there is still a lack of detail on how and why design and in-use performance differs – and hence how to address this gap.
“The Greenbuild Awards are important because they showcase buildings that are performing well and provide guidance and inspiration for those designing, delivering and operating buildings.”
