Ilum-a-Lite founder nominated for E&Y award
Mark Rutherford, Managing Director of Ilum-a-Lite, a Baulkham Hills based energy savings solutions company, has been named a regional nominee in the 2011 Ernst & Young Entrepreneur Of The Year awards. The winners for NSW and ACT will be announced at the regional awards ceremony on 23 June in Sydney.
Rutherford, who established Ilum-a-Lite in 1996, is claimed to have begun promoting power-saving technologies long before climate change and global warming became serious community and business issues.
This past financial year, Ilum-a-Lite products have saved 10,000 tonnes of CO2 and $1,000,000 in electricity costs for new customers including government, hospitals, councils, universities and businesses across the country, and also contributed to worldwide energy efficiency with export sales to Asia, Europe, South Africa and New Zealand, claims the company.
