Master Electricians Australia (MEA) has unveiled South Australia and Northern Territory’s best sparkies in a star-studded line-up of winners across eight categories at the MEA Excellence Awards on Saturday night.
Alberton’s Electric Results was crowned Master Electrician of the Year, recognised for its business prowess and mentorship of many young electrical contractors in the region and beyond.
Electric Results’ specialisation in complex infrastructure projects also caught the attention of the judges, earning them the Commercial Project of the Year for the development of the Western Hospital stages 1-3.
Strathalbyn’s Modern Innovation Electrical also rose above the competition, claiming three awards under their belt.
Owner Angus West was recognised as SA’s Electrician (Tradie) of the Year, and two of his projects received the Industrial Project of the Year and Residential Project of the Year.
The Energy Efficiency Project of the Year went to the NT’s Northern Renewable Group for reducing Bagala Community Store’s overhead expenses, allowing AIG to keep groceries at a low cost for the local Indigenous community.
Other winners include George Curtis of PEER, winning Apprentice of the Year, and Michaela (Mishi) Nau of GESA Pty Ltd was awarded the Women in Contracting award for her dedication to the trade and her business.
MEA CEO Malcolm Richards congratulates all finalists and winners of the awards.
