The eight winners were carefully decided by an independent international judging panel, including Paul McLaughlin (UK) - CEO of the Building Engineering Services Association (BESA), Hugues Haentjens (France) - Editor-in-Chief of Chaud Froid Performance, Norbert Otten (Germany) - Managing Director of Drees & Sommer Advanced Building Technologies GmbH and Rafael Úrculo (Spain) - founding partner of engineering consultancy Úrculo Ingenieros Consultores.
