Our People

Colin Gillam
CEO, Inventor
Colin Gillam is the founder of Alternative Fuels and Energy and
the inventor of the Sun Lizard.
Before just about anyone else, Colin saw a unfulfilled market niche
in the environmental products field for solar home heating and
cooling devices. The result has been the Sun
Lizard suite of products, which take square aim at reducing
the third largest energy consumption item in the average home:
heating and cooling. Colin's practical outlook on life, strong
entrepreneurship and dedication to improving people’s relationship
with their community and environment has allowed him to progressively
spread the Sun Lizard concepts
to homes, schools and institutional buildings throughout Australia.
