Itron continues to create a more resourceful world. We have recently been recognized as the winner of the Golden Peacock Global Award for Sustainability from the Institute of Directors (IOD), India. The award was presented by the Baroness Verma, global chairperson for the Institute of Directors in India and former minister of energy, climate change and international development in the UK, during an award ceremony held in London on Oct. 26.

Itron’s commitment to caring for the environment begins with daily operations; we constantly seek new ways to reduce waste and minimize our impact on the environment – both within our own walls and in the work we do with our customers. Similarly, our corporate social responsibility programs are closely aligned with our business mission and vision to create a more resourceful world. We believe the way we manage energy and water will define the century and though collaboration, education and innovation, we have a tremendous opportunity to make a difference for future generations to come.

Nigel Hughes, Itron’s vice president of sales for EMEA, accepted this award and gave a case study presentation on Oct. 26 at the Institute of Directors (IOD) India’s 18th Annual London Global Convention on Corporate Governance & Sustainability and Golden Peacock Awards Presentation Ceremony at Hotel Montcalm in London.
