Awards
It is a great honour to be recognised among the companies that are contenders for these awards. So many New Zealand companies are doing things that we can all be very proud of and they provide us with real inspiration to keep building on what we've started at PowerSmart. Thanks to our great solar power competitors and colleagues for keeping us honest and pushing forward to always get better.
“Our great team works tremendously hard. We're a positive and fast-paced bunch committed to world class solar power results and we all should take the time to recognise what a great achievement these awards are.”
- PowerSmart Managing Director Mike Bassett-Smith.

"Congratulations to your team. I have never passed a maximum score in every category in two years as an awards evaluator. To me your project in Tokelau ticks every box. You have blended working in a remote location, excellence in design and engineering, & economic rationale with reducing diesel costs and on-going environmental and economic benefits. And not least, training benefits to the local population. A really brilliant project and I hope we keep your company in New Zealand and see domestic growth also as a result.
An outstanding example of applying existing technology to a problem with results that have brought social, economic and environmental benefits to the customer and end user. Brilliant example of a NZ business exporting it's skill to deliver the solution."
Kind Regards,
The New Zealand Innovators Awards Team
