Tersus Energy plc (“Tersus”),
the AIM-listed clean energy company, today announces
the appointment of Heather Killen as a non-executive
director with effect from 18 July, 2006.
Ms Killen is currently a Partner at
Hemisphere Capital LLP, where her focus is expansion-stage
technology companies with international growth potential.
Ms Killen has more than 16 years experience in international
business development and senior executive positions,
including Senior Vice President of International Operations

businesses for the company in more than 20 countries.

John Devaney, Chairman of Tersus,
said: ‘I am delighted to welcome Heather to the
Tersus board. Her experience and track record, particularly

it builds on its current platform, and develops as a
leading renewable business with direct investments,

is a great pleasure to join Tersus at such an exciting
time. The commercialisation of new energy sources and
power management technologies is to the next 20 years
what the telecoms revolution was to the 1990s. Tersus
