November 25, 2008 — Wayne, PA

A consortium of energy news and market intelligence organizations has named SunGard the winner of the Silver Award for Energy Technology in the 7th annual Energy Business Awards 2008.

The Energy Business Award recognizes organizations making a significant impact on the way energy business is conducted, trading risks are mitigated, energy systems are developed, energy technology is advanced, and other key accomplishments. Winners of the Energy Technology category were chosen based on their unique and substantial impact on trading efficiency and effectiveness through technological advances in front-, middle- and back-office application technology; online trading; data aggregation and management; and billing systems.

Guy Isherwood, publisher and editor of Commodities Now magazine and co-founder of the Energy Business Awards, said, “SunGard is a worthy representative in its field of excellence, and reflects the growing importance and awareness of energy business disciplines.”

Matt Mandalinci, president of SunGard’s energy business, said, “Survival in today’s rapidly changing energy sector depends on an organization’s ability to quickly access the information needed to anticipate, evaluate and adapt. SunGard understands that consolidating multiple data sources and applications is a business imperative driven by increasing velocity of change, complexity of understanding enterprise risk and necessity to achieve regulatory compliance.”

The Energy Business Awards are organized by a consortium of energy publications including Commodities Now, WorldPower and Emission Dynamics, and consultancy and market intelligence firm, The Energy Partnership. Energy industry practitioners and other relevant institutions nominated companies for recognition in a variety of categories, followed by online voting that required participants to choose from five short-listed companies in each category as determined by the awards panel. Award winners were chosen by the total number of votes received.
