San Francisco, CA, November 08, 2008 --(PR.com)-- On Thursday evening, November 6, more than 800 clean tech enthusiasts gathered at the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco to hear about the newest clean technologies to be named "Winner" by Clean Tech Open, the "Academy Awards of Clean Tech," according to Channel 2 News.

These prestigious awards result from intense scrutiny of business and sustainability plans by experienced angel and venture investors, engineers, entrepreneurs, environmental experts, legal professionals, and professors. This year was the first ever sustainability award across the categories and Power Assure was the only 2008 winner at CTO in two major categories.

The Smart Power Category Award encourages links between information technologies and electricity delivery/use that give industrial, commercial and residential consumers greater control over when and how their energy is delivered and used. Power Assure's "Holistic Power Management" vision was recognized.

The Sustainability Award encourages a "holistic" approach to running the business, from the fundamental business practices including hiring practices, location and employee participation, technology, carbon footprint (cradle to cradle).
