World Coal Association to recognise innovation, safety achievements
JOHANNESBURG (miningweekly.com) – The World Coal Association (WCA) on Thursday launched its inaugural Leadership and Excellence Awards Programme and said it would name the first award winners of the yearly series at its International Coal and Climate Summit, in Poland, in November.
The programme was aimed at recognising outstanding achievement and innovation in the international coal industry and its value chain. The awards were open to companies and organisations working in the coal mining, coal use or coal technologies industries. Non-WCA members and companies that were not producing coal were also allegeable for an award.
“These prestigious awards will cover four main areas: environmental practice, low-carbon technologies, innovative coal technologies and mining safety. They are an opportunity for the coal industry to recognise and honour those companies that have achieved an outstanding level of success in these areas and to drive further environmental and safety improvements,” WCA CEO Milton Catelin said.
The four available awards were the WCA Award for Excellence in Environmental Practice, the WCA Award for Excellence in Low-Carbon Technologies, the WCA Award for Leadership on Innovative Coal Technologies and the WCA Award for Leadership on Mining Safety.
For each award the judges would be looking for evidence of an innovative approach, good prospects for wider application and cost effective deployment prospects.
The programme was open for entries until September 16.
