Our staff

EnviroGroup prides itself on the quality of its employees. Our senior staff members are highly experienced and qualified, and help EnviroGroup to maintain a high level of professionalism.

Mick Harris - Managing Director

Mick is one of the original pioneers of the Victorian solar industry. He founded the ReNew magazine, and edited the first 40 issues. He has edited 3 sustainability books and countless booklets on sustainability. He is Technical Advisor for the Alternative Technology Association (ATA), and also for the New Inventors program.

Mick has also been active in East Timor, founding and directing the ATA's International Projects Group. This group has installed more than 40 stand-alone systems in East Timor, and spend many hours educating the East Timorese on sustainability and the environment.

"Many of you know me. Some don't. I have a long term history working to develop and promote sustainable technologies. I founded ReNew magazine in 1980 and managed the construction of the Solar Workshop and part of the Energy Park at CERES. I managed the Alternative Technology Association for 15 years. I installed my first solar power system in 1983. I have 30 years experience as a sustainable technology specialist and consultant. 

In making a proposal to you I put my reputation on the line. EnviroGroup is my business. Its reputation is my reputation. If we make a commitment to you as representatives of your councils and communities, we will stand by it."
